From US SDF, on what I think is the UMN gopher client (unless it has
been replaced by something else?), I can load the front page, but any of
the entries appear to fail to transfer content.

Is this some issue with gopher+? IIRC didn't the UMN client try to do
gopher+ requests to all servers?

If I try to manually enter the selector of one of the entries, I get the
error you quoted above.

Meanwhile, it works on OverbiteFF on SeaMonkey*.


* Do note that the latest release of OverbiteFF needs a change in order
