It may help them determine what to keep in stock, etc. Some of the restaurants here in Atlanta ask you to sign the guest check (as well as your credit card slip). Anyone else seen this practice? Anyone have a guess as to why they would want to do that? -- Peter N Wan WHAT : GaTech System Administrator, CSNET Liaison MAIL : School of ICS, Georgia Tech, Atlanta, Georgia 30332 BELL : (404) 894-3658 [office] / (404) 894-3152 [messages] UUCP : ...!{akgua,allegra,emory,rlgvax,sb1,ut-ngp,ut-sally}!gatech!wan ARPA : wan.gatech@CSNet-Relay CSNET : wan@gatech
