Pretty much the same thing - my headers read the same.  I remember bidding on a
Melonfish auction (he had lots) if only because I felt that since he was just
down the freeway from me, I wasn't that worried about fraud (must have picked
up a lot of negatives since I last made a bid).  Since it is the Pasadena
(where I'm typing this from) post office that is involved, I thought my
proximity might have something to do with this, but it seems not.
