Colleagues,

Try this shortened URL  for the GED statistical report web pages:

	http://tinyurl.com/bo2b5

If you want to make a "tiny url" of any long one, you can do this  
easily and free by going to

	http://tinyurl.com

and bookmarking the URL which will create a "tiny url" for you of any  
page that is open in your browser.  So far, it has always worked for me.
