title: Why does wget ignore the query string in the URL?
body: <p>I want to use wget to download the following 18 HTML files:</p>
  <pre><code>http://www.ted.com/talks/quick-list?sort=date&amp;order=desc&amp;page=18
  http://www.ted.com/talks/quick-list?sort=date&amp;order=desc&amp;page=17
  ...
  http://www.ted.com/talks/quick-list?sort=date&amp;order=desc&amp;page=1
  </code></pre>
  <p>No matter what comes after <code>page=</code>, it always downloads the first page of the listing. Do I have to escape some characters in the URLs? How?</p>
