Yahoo is just being really lazy about it these days with the way that I had, so I'm thinking about doing something different. I'll probably stay with Yahoo, seeing as there are really no other options, but I'm going to change things up from how I'm doing it. I'll either go get the CSV file that you can see on their website (bottom right corner "Download quote (Delayed) or something like that), or just read the JavaScript on their website and figure out how they do it for themselves. I'm sure that however they are getting it must be pretty much bulletproof, so I imagine that it will be super fast no matter how hard I can hit it. Anyway, it should be easy to actually implement since I already set it up to be in one and only one place, so I just have to find the right URL and that's about it.

Since I fixed #19, this really isn't an issue anymore.
