No.  All PayPal payment notices have gone only to secretary at nsrca.org,
the main address registered with PayPal.

A man tried to pay for his father.  He received the same receipt
you did.  I did not know that the receipts said that moleski at canisius.edu
had received the money.  This was false.

No payments ever came to me.

No payment notices ever came to me.

I was in PayPal's boilerplate because some time over the years,
they decided that the person listed as Customer Support would
be listed in the receipt.  Instead of saying that this is
the Customer Support address, their templates say that the
Customer Support address received the payment.

Thanks.  The other person did make accusations.  Since
I did not know about what PayPal was doing with the
"Customer Service" address, I could not understand the
other person's confusion.

Ed Hartley also resigned as webmaster around the same time.

It was something of a perfect storm, I guess.
