Thanks for the pointer. With the number of files I have online it wouldn't be 
practical
to use tinyurl. I just assume those sufficiently interested will piece 
together the complete working URL\
into their browser, like...

This:  http://www.ibiblio.org/ecolandtech/alternative-energy/HeatingWi
plus this: thWood/HeatingStoves-Aprovecho.pdf

.... will sure get you there.
