looks good, but the problem is, only gene=user 1000 has any rights to 
follow that path, so this access must be done as gene, not the default 
www-data:www-data, or even as the parent session of apache2.. Is there 
an "as user=gene" command that can be used only for this stanza that I 
can put in this stanza?  root cannot go up this path to see anything,  
neither can www-data.

Is this a place where making gene a member of group www-data would help? 
No, I just looked and I am already a member of that group. 

Help, I've built a sandbox not even root can get into!!!

And since apache2 doesn't believe in man pages, what do they use instead 
of?
