Re: Much as I respect you Eric, I direct your attention to the myriad of
"checks"
being sent out by AT&T and MCI, to name a few offenders. These bear the
legend: "endorsement of this check constitutes your acceptance of <foo> as
your long distance carrier."
When those go out in English to non-English speakers and get cashed, there
is a good case to be made for consumer fraud. Anyone want to follow up on
that...?
