The canonical form of HG addresses is
URL region_name
For example
http://hg.osgrid.org Lbsa Plaza
or
http://sciencegrid.org/grid/hypergrid.php Yellowstone

If you type this on the map you will find it. (as long as those 
grids/regions exist)

Other forms are supported for various reasons, from legacy to having to 
deal with viewer issues. But the canonical form, i.e. the one to which 
all others are translated, is
URL region_name
