[Ailist] Working with long links

[Christine Whitney Sanchez]

Many blessings to you and your family, Stephanie.

While I haven't posted much on the list this past year, I do read your posts
and often pass them along.  Your ongoing willingness to share resources and
insights has made a difference to me, Stephanie.  

While this particular issue naturally seems minor in the larger scheme of
things, it brings to light our existential human need to be simultaneously
called to the big picture while tending to earthly details.   

With appreciation and wishes for the outpouring of love that encircles
grief,

Christine

I use tinyurl and snipurl sometimes but it is easier to hit the hit "Send
link to this page" when you are at the site. When you use one of these
services, it is time-consuming because you have to copy the URL, go to
another URL, paste and use their process, etc.

On many listservs and all e-mails (as far as I know), the URLs do not break
up so no need to use it. If it does break up here, it is easy to get to with
a copy and paste.

You know what, this all seems so minor. I just while writing this e- mail
got a call from my sister. My mother just died.
