     [After wondering why this followup didn't appear in my local news
service, I found the text in my dead articles file.  I appear to have a
brain-damaged server; it doesn't recognize ba.general so it refuses to
send the item at all.  I'm reposting it; if it appears twice, my apol-
ogies.  It's not that important.]

     Responding to the original post, which was, roughly, "What can I do
about these charges?", for many years I've tried to do my banking at small
banks.  It seemed to me that the service tended to be a lot more personal,
not so much hiding behind faceless policies.  Unfortunately, in my neigh-
borhood the small banks got into a lot of trouble the last few years and
either failed or had to cut back their services substantially.  As a result
I am now with a fairly big S & L, albeit one that appears to be well run.
If I have a falling out with them, the first place I'll look for a replace-
ment is the small banks again.
