Transfer old Flickr account to me?

Does anyone have an old, unused Flickr account that is not merged with a Yahoo! account they can transfer over to me?

I don't want to sign up for a Yahoo! account just so that I can use Flickr.

Back in the day, I merged my Flickr account (stupid of me) to my Yahoo! account, and of course my Yahoo! account was overwhelmed with spam, so I cancelled everything. Now I really want Flickr again, but I don't want to sign up for a Yahoo! account.

Does anyone out there have a Flickr account they no longer use and did not merge with their Yahoo! account? If so, I was wondering if I could take it over -- all you have to do is change the email associated with the account to my email, and change the password to something simple. I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Just out of curiosity (this really isn't what askme is for...) ... why not? I was one of the most vocal complainers about all the problems with the Flickr-Yahoo account integration - and there were a lot, lots of API stuff broke, people were getting logged out all the time for no apparent reason - but they've all been completely fixed. What's your reason to not use the new login system? It's not like you're forced to use it for anything else but Flickr.
