Is that right.  First off, that wasn't me -- my EC auction didn't have
screenshots.  Sounds like they borrowed the shots off my then-webpage (shots
now on www.stryder.de).  Secondly, it was a "private auction," meaning
bidders' identities were never revealed.  How could anyone but eBay know the
screen names of bidders?

Natch.

Is my rant a ruse to get others to circulate Houston 77?  Maybe, and maybe
not.  Have fun, kids.
