Two people have indicated they don't see this behavior.  Perhaps I did
something wrong.  It's been awhile, and I was just using the free
package (Sheila, I'm willing to put up with a lazy website if it's
free :-), but every time I executed "git push" it would finish with
something like "you can now view your site and xyz1234.heroku.com".
Every time, "xyz1234" changed to something else.  I guess if I somehow
had smontanaro.net associated with my Heroku account that behavior
would be different?  How do I point a domain at a Heroku site, just
the normal DNS sauce, or does some Heroku setting need to be tweaked?

Thanks all.  That's probably enough for the moment.  I clearly should
mess around again with Heroku before trying to go much farther.  If I
can mix my stuff into a Django/Heroku environment, that would be
ideal, especially if the price is the noise made by baby chickens.

Thx,

Skip
