richard, i agree there. however, the righteous arguments of accountants that their profession is well thought out and rational don't jive...

if it is an expense then call it an expense and deduct it like an expense. if it is "free" then it isn't an expense and don't deduct the proceeds.

but to say it isn't an expense and then deduct the cost as an expense... well... that is politics, not rational thought, imho.
