THE LONG AND SHORT OF URLS

  Regarding the "mile-and-a-half-long" URL for the Newman
  Museum article, Stephen Searle writes: "You may be interested
  in looking into http://tinyurl.com/  for your URLs in the E-Sylum.
  It is free and  it works.

  I made one for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch article on the
  Newman Numismatic Museum you provided.
  http://tinyurl.com/2xcku

  Keep up your excellent work!"

   [After plowing through dozens of junk emails telling me how
   to make certain things longer, it's a pleasant switch to read
   about making anything shorter.  I may use this in the future
   when the situation calls.   But readers are always advised to
   never count on any URL existing far into the future.  On the
   web, everything changes constantly.  So follow Mike Hodder's
   example - if you want to archive a referenced article for your
   files, print it out right away. Don't wait, or you may be
   disappointed later.  -Editor]
