Isn't that the sad truth?

IAC, thanks for the info. And yes, it works. Like a charm, in fact. It
seems to be possible to "log in," bookmark the start-page, go to some
other site, then bookmark back to the OED without having to "log in,"
again.

Of course, it's possible to get the same effect by simply opening a
new window. But, for those times when you google something without
having remembered to open a new window, it's a mitzve to be able to go
back and not have to sign in all over again.

Once that we recognize that we do not err out of laziness, stupidity,
or evil intent, we can uncumber ourselves of the impossible burden of
trying to be permanently right. We can take seriously the proposition
that we could be in error, without necessarily deeming ourselves
idiotic or unworthy.
