-s tests a filename. Like /home/web/dir/page.html. REQUEST_URI is the thing to 
the right of the domain name in the URL. Like /dir/page.html. So unless your 
docroot is "/", this will always be true (ie, the REQUEST_URI will never match 
a filepath).

And what exactly does it say in the error_log? It will tell you the path that 
your compilcated rule is resolving to. Also you could switch on RewriteLog and 
see what it's doing.
