ok... it *was* silly... 

The skins tool in my Plone/CMF has the REQUEST variable set to "plone_skin"
rather than "portal_skin".  Using "plone_skin" in my previous example works,
not surprisingly, perfectly.

quick silly question-- 

(using Zope 2.5.1, CMF 1.3beta, Plone from CVS) 

if I have a skin named "bob" (for the sake of arguement), is there any 
reason why I can't issue a url such as 
http://mysite/mycmfsite/bobs_page?portal_skin=bob
<http://mysite/mycmfsite/bobs_page?portal_skin=bob> in order to have the
page 
rendered using the "bob" skin?

Doing so on my site produces no error, but neither does it appear to change 
the skin as desired.   Note that I *can* go to user preferences and change a

user's skin to "bob" or whatever else I want and it works.... so why not 
using the request string???
