I think the only person phishing here is Robby, who must be trying to 
demonstrate that writing a book hasn't completely exhausted his 
creativity, only severely retarded it.  We don't have a PayPal account.  
But if we did, no one would trust Robby with the username and password 
anyway since he would probably spend all the money on unicorn stickers 
for his bicycle helmet.
