I see the smiley so the intent here isn't lost on me.  Playing
devil's advocate however, I'm just too old and tired for religion
anymore.  I used to fight the good fight and all that, and these
days, I'm looking for whatever easiest/best solves the problem at
hand.

That said, qurl.com is neat, and since I can tune the redirect
time-delay to my liking, I might use it. I'm only concerned about its
longevity.  I got the impression from the author that this was thrown
up on a whim; is it meant to be permanent?
