   I've had GEICO renter's insurance (from '79 to 84) and their auto
   insurance from '88 to the present.  The rates can't be beat.

I decided to take the GEICO challenge.  Called them up, gave them a line by
line quote on my current insurance from Allstate.  Not only couldn't they
save my 15%, they couldn't save me anything.  To go with GEICO would have
cost me close to 50% more than I am currently paying.

Sorry, I'll stay away from GEICO, thank you.
