 From the documentation:
---
If you want to pass variable arguments at the end of a URL, you must
use regex actions keys with '^' and '$' anchors, and the arguments must
be separated with forward slashes (/) in the URL

So boys and girls, today Mike learned that all RegEx URL handlers need 
to start with a caret.
