    Wouldnt it be a hoot if Bill was Bobby from way back. Bobby using this forum to turn a buck. Now that would be a hood.

    Bobby was from Tuscson. Bill is from Oklahoma. Both IP logged, confirmed.

    I remember when I first joined the board, somebody, I can't remember who now, might've been bbauer, accused me of being Bobby!

    Pat, you couldn't be Bobby. Bobby didn't work in the insurance industry.

    Doc, IPs don't mean much. You can make an alias anywhere in the U.S. and them go home and log in, and the IP shown is the one that you started the account with. Another instance as I am no where near where my IP traces to. Another way is IP spoofing and proxies, and many other ways around it. In other words, IPs may not tell the whole story.

    Lurker,

    You are correct , my IP address shows the University of Nevada - Las Vegas, and ironically I don't live in Nevada.

    True, the board retains the IP address that was extant when you signed up. So, in Sean's case, he was using a UNLV internet connection when he first participated. That digression aside, I'll never be convinced that Bobby and Bill are the same.
