Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Apparently one that had already been redeemed.  I didn't realize that I needed a unique one.  Can I get one?

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

cheque was in the mail today. looks okay, but I probabyl wouldn't accept one for larger sums. the check itself seems still too easy to fake, the sticker can be bought by everyone, and I don't see the "artificial watermark" on the back. The only thing (besides the second sticker) that could be meant by it are some white letters on a grey background.
final verdict: would accept one for up to 20 fiat from a normal looking stranger.

Sad

if you want another one, will cost you around 0.25 btc
Well, I'm sure I'll find it. My cat didnt rip it up, he just occasionally steals things like paper scraps and hides them. I call it his "nest." I should have taken pictures of his old hiding place, there was like 50 pompoms and 4 tennisballs, a blanket and some leaves. It was weird.

My free sample cheque arrived in the mail this past Saturday, unfortunately so did a hard thunderstorm.  The kind with the sideways rain.  Thus all my mail got wet, including the sample cheque.  Amazingly, the cheque itself held up rather well with minimal color bleeding and the private key stickers intact.  However, the evelope that it came it was a common security type envelope, and the blue ink used upon the inside of it to create the security pattern didn't stay put, and bled all over the cheque.  It's kind of a shame, too; as I was intent upon showing the cheque to a friend of mine in Cincinnati the next time I got up there.  He's from Bangladesh and is Islamic.

I'd consider getting a real checking account, if the cheques are customizable with my personal info.  However, I'd need to know more about the details of this banking setup.

EDIT: I do find it ironic that on IBB's main (unfinished) website, the 'loans' page presented me with an ad for 'Dragons Tale:The first MMORPG casino for bitcoin'

"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.
