I can't get LWP::Simple to do anything. I've tried variations of the 
following. There is no error message, but $Buff is always empty. What 
don't I understand?

#!/perl/bin/perl -w
use strict;
BEGIN{use CGI::Carp qw(carpout fatalsToBrowser);carpout(\*STDOUT);$|=1;}

use LWP::Simple;
my $Buff;
$Buff = get("http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/PacoWeb/SiteSearch.htm"); 
#personal server
#$Buff = get("http://fentin.com.index.html"); #internet
#die "Couldn’t get it!" unless defined $Buff;
die "could not get page: $LWP::Simple::error" if not defined $Buff;
die $Buff;
