replacing post with get '/user' in my app does allow me to pull up the page
but when I enter information into it and press Go I get:
File not found
Iceweasel can't find the file at http://0.0.0.0:3000/user.
Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
And if I enter incorrect or incomplete information into it I get a similar
error which of course prevents me from showing the user necessary error
handling like return "Last Name was not entered" etc.
