banking and since bill-paying is usually a free enticement, there is
no service charge or fee deducted. If, in addition, Bob's entity had
an A/R account, a physical check mailed locally would not even be

Good point - I never followed any links to see where they led (which
can also be misleading). I follow a policy of initiating a contact

Bob,
I'd like to make a donation to the pythonmac site--I assume the paypal
