It is entirely possible that I should look at bitcoin addresses beyond the first three characters and everyone should ignore this thread.

Do you think this was the case? I've seen change addresses being reused, but it is a matter of the time between the txs.
I always look at the first three and the last three characters
There was a proposition to add colors to addresses in the client side of webpages so they are easier to differentiate. I wonder where that is.
