Thanks for the tip, and that would certainly help, but it's slightly
annoying to have to type out the file name, then realize that it the
filename starts with "~/".  To fix it then, I have to type

C-a C-d C-e 

I don't want to have to do this everytime I open a remote file.  I think
Emacs should be start enough to realize that I'm trying to open a remote
file.
