Using 73 as your check will not help!

My check is 73 and I get asked for repeats of my check very often.  I think 
people don't trust that they've heard that commonly heard combination and have 
to be certain that they are not miscopying it.

My guess is that a combination that is unusual that forces you to pay attention 
will be copied more carefully.
