[meteorite-list] A note about the Paypal - personal transaction "exploit"

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

Hi Richard  and List,

I'm just trying to keep it simple.  I already have a PayPal account,
but I don't have a USPS account.  So I'd rather keep it consolidated
under one website. :)

Best regards and clear skies,

MikeG

PS - what part of North Tampa did you live in?  I am near Lutz now.
