When using the next_page function, this error is showing up and the program exits:

You can dismiss this ticket. My scraping was happening inside another HTTP call that had a short timeout period. I modified the timeout and I'm in business.

Ok, going to 0.8.5 on mechanize didn't solve the problem - can close this ticket for now -
