But that is not good.  With a check you have some protection if it is 
lost or stolen.  It's designed to be cashed by a particular person or 
organization.  The English/Israeli system does not allow for that 
protection.  For instance sending you rebate chack through the mail 
would be like sending cash.... if's lost, it's lost, the money is gone!
