I am sure we will figure out what is going on.

Only changes are host, and platform. Some minor content additions. Removed 1 word from title... 'fine'.
Aware of the unordered lists John, but thank you.
Not sure how this pertains to the canonical issue though.
With the www the homepage was on page 1 for years. Now, Yahoo has decided that the www in the URL for the homepage is not only query specific, it kills the rankings and uses the non www URL depending upon what you search for.
You can check the server response for the different canonical homepage URL's if you like. All 301's have been in place for a long time.
