I have the PayPal receipt. I meant, I didn't receive the email sent to old-timers. I figured you might want to know in case this was an oversight, and there are old-timers you intended to contact, but didn't.

Similarly, I called for appliance service and added the number of the vendor to my address book. Then the technician tries calling me from his unknown cell, which does not ring. He was able to text me though.

Yeah, Musk might be able get away with this, since I expect many key employees will be attracted by much lower housing costs out of state. Texas has high real estate taxes, but not high enough to offset savings on house prices.
