I cleared all caches.  After verifying that I had no cookies from any of
the domains I mentioned in my original message, I enabled cookies from
all domains.  I enabled HTML5 media and Flash.  I disabled AdBlock Plus.
 I enabled "Advertise Firefox compatibility".  I even disabled AVG
Antivirus.  I still cannot get SlashDot via SeaMonkey.

Duracell batteries are prohibited in my house.
They leak and have severely damaged some expensive
electronics that I own.  Energizer and Eveready
batteries are okay.
