[ale] [OT] Defensive Code matters

[Leam Hall]

Hey Jerald,

In this case PayPal isn't doing anything wrong. While not perfect, in 
times past PayPal has made good customer support noticeable and I've 
even posted on Facebook a time or two. If this doesn't drop off soon 
I'll give them a call.

I'm explaining to the transaction vendor why their coding assumptions 
can cause issues. My good deed for the month is politely giving them 
another use case to consider. I'm working on learning more testing in my 
own code and know the value of good use cases.

Hopefully they do it better than the hotels that have intentionally 
double charged me. I've had multiple hotels from different chains charge 
me for a room that's already been paid for and then try to say it was 
just normal. One even went back several times reducing the amount to see 
what would go through!
