I probably could, but I won't -- same reason; especially given the subject
line says "Beware of tiny/blind URLs" and there is no explanation in the
message of what this tiny/blind URL is.

I also morphed the link above so that I am not knowingly propagating it to
others.

Oh, yeah, that was my reason too!

and there is no explanation in the
message of what this tiny/blind URL is.

I usually do that. Forgot somehow this time. Thanks.
