Neither has a last modified date, so both are dynamic pages. The
lack of contents length confirms this. Apache will always give a
contents length for static pages. If it is just the home pages, they
are doing this to force hits to be counted for market research. This
might be true if it happens for all pages (some UK ISPs do this) but
would be anti-social.
