Thanks for the info, Megan. I thought maybe it 
was a broadcast message sent to all users, but I 
guess not! What's strange is that I had already 
authorized my ID months ago, and I even used it 
to bid (and win!) a couple of times when Sato was 
serving as a go between in those situations. I 
wonder why they are sending me that e-mail again? 
Hmm... out of curiousity, I'm going to try to see 
if I can still access the bidding page (not that 
I'll be using it in the near future).
