Excellent, Alex, both of those sites I can get to. We got new computers about 6 months ago and for a long time I couldn't get yahoo mail and I still can't open any articles in the NYTimes, though I can go to the site; I'm sure there are other sites that are off limits but I can't figure out any particular rhyme or reason.
I appreciate the newly regained url-shortening siddhi, thanks.
