"Mickey Mouse, Main Street, Disneyland, CA") and had no problems cashing them at most banks. However, the best (and related to this thread) was a check with "Do Not Cash This Check" for the name, made payable to "Do Not Cash This Check", and it was signed with that name. Guess what? <g>

Hi Doug,

I believe it, and I think I may recall either that piece or something similar.

With computers I believe one of the biggest problems is that some people expect them to do all their thinking for them. Another really big one is the total opposite. People feel that they're so complicated that they can't possibly understand them, and stop trying to figure out what's going on.
