+==== Issue ====
-==== Background ====
+barrons.com is giving the following error.
-yfinance library is the easiest and fastest way to download historical stock prices. Asof 2023-05-20, it is not available in the defaults channel. But is available in the conda-forge channel.
-==== Task ====
-The goal here is to pull the yfinance package from conda-forge but everything else from the defaults channel.
-==== Solution ====
 <code>
- % cat env_test_yfinance.yml | stuff.py
+You have been blocked.
-name: test_yfinance
-channels:
-  - defaults
-dependencies:
-  - python=3.11
-  - conda-forge::yfinance

+* You are browsing and clicking at a speed much faster than
+  expected of a human being.
+* Something is preventing JavaScript from working on your
+  computer.
+* There is a robot on the same network (IP WW.XX.YY.ZZ) as you.
