What rights does that give them, actually? ~| Am I signing my soul away? One thing you can do is to write a limitation next to your signature, corresponding to the amount of cash deposit which would be required by the company, e.g. "NOT OVER $200", or whatever the rental agent will accept. That might reduce your liability if something goes wrong and the voucher is put through for a bundle of $$$. Dave Sherman -- {allegra,cornell,decvax,ihnp4,linus,utzoo}!utcsrgv!dave
