A point well taken, Paul.  I think Fred made the same point in another post.

You're right, just because I don't recognize the high bidder doesn't mean that
other pdml listers aren't watching any given auction.

As I said, I think I've only done it twice, but I guess the best policy is just
to leave well enough alone.  Anyone who's interested in getting anything on
eBay can search eBay on their own.  Any seller who wants to "advertise" on pdml
is free to do so.

regards,
frank
