I agree with of Troy, let's just drop it. If you don't yet realize that WWW addresses start with www. then you aren't online! Here in Vermont, where we only have one area code, you omit it when you are giving someone your phone number, and even in places where there are many area codes, you don't say, "my number is 1-617-555-1234." You leave off the 1, because you know that the other person knows that you need to dial it. That's why I've formed the NO-WWW, the National Opposition to Worthless and Wasted Words.

BTW, of Troy, I imagine that amazon.com would be more effective than hppt://www.amazon.com, but http://www.amazon.com might do the trick.
