Well there ya go.  That's the exact pic they referenced no doubt when 
they programmed the machine they printed the chips with.  :-)  That's 
the exact numbers that are on the auction chip and layout.

What do they hope to accomlish? Cash flow?  Irritating people? I told 
them I have a machine here to test them in and they still go to this 
effort??
