Jerry,

Last night a disk on the server filled up and for a while some documents
weren't being served.  The problem was fixed before 3 am.  Sorry for the
inconvenience,

Curious.  The short URL's for 6.012, 6.071, 6.728, 6.170, and 6.891 are
working, but the short URL's for 6.070 and 6.033 are both broken.
