Although the bank statements I've been getting have had "Nation's Bank"
printed on them, the effects of the merger finally hit home when I got a
Nation's Bank ATM card to replace my Cashflow card.  I have favorable
memories of good service from Sovran (especially their West Hyattesville
branch) and am sorry to see the last vestiges of Sovran (at least in 
name) slip away.  The fact that Sovran itself was a merger of several
previous banks (including Sovereign Bank of Virginia) mitigates this
somewhat, but it's still hard to see dependable institutions change,
not always for the better.

Anyone have any idea when my "Sovran Bank" checks won't be any good
anymore? (I haven't been in DC in a while, so news from home slowly
trickles in).  Is this still a good bank after the merger?
