Under this question (https://docs.python.org/2/faq/programming.html#my-program-is-too-slow-how-do-i-speed-it-up) in the 2.7 programming FAQ, it gives a link to an anecdote that Guido van Rossum wrote.

The URL it gives:
http://www.python.org/doc/essays/list2str.html

The correct URL (no .html):
http://www.python.org/doc/essays/list2str

I'm sure there are some people who didn't think to remove the '.html', and couldn't find the story.

Just a quick typo fix.
