RE:	how to rent a car without plastic cards:

	many years back, it was possible to leave a deposit in form
	of travellers' checks.  I did it once, without double-signing
	the checks, pointing out to an understanding person, that he had
	a contract, my checks, and did not need more to sue me.  But if
	I countersigned the checks, I would then receive them back and
	be no longer protected should I lose them.

	Anyone know if that is still possible today ???
