Subject: Re: Question regarding mechanize lib

Thanks Shawn, I wish it did help. I need a way to set custom request 
headers, from what I can tell Mechanize doesn't have a public method for 
doing that, so I may likely have to revert to net/http instead. Was 
hoping I was wrong and was just missing something... ;)

Thanks,
Andy
