Ahh, true.  BTW, you have to supply it for the purpose of allowing 
someone to use it, too.  That is, if I gave it to you for allowing you 
to deposit or to cash a single check, you can't use it for other 
purposes.  But, there's nothing preventing me from doing it in the bank 
world, just laws to punish me after I misuse it.

And yes, this is US laws only, not international.  Sorry I was being 
US-centric again.  Trust me, I don't wish our laws on the rest of the 
world...
