Walter, please check the Archives.  Yes, I have receipts for everything of
value I have purchased.  I work camera shows.  I buy from street kids --
but only AFTER they show me photo ID and I record all the details.  Even
so, I am clearly the highest bidder, or they would go elsewhere.

In other words:  the only dudes who aren't willing to post entire serial
numbers are those who willingly buy from known thieves.  Me?  I don't, and
so my serial numbers are cheerfuly posted.

Paranoia?  Either that -- or willing complicity in the purchase of stolen
goods.
