* OT ** In my observations here I've concluded that robbie's usually not one to: a) let facts get in the way of his opinion b) consider for one moment that others may be right and he may be wrong c) take a mature, considerate, non-inflammatory approach to debating differences of opinion I do find it interesting that his "approach" survived an audit. Was he audited at random? I've never known anyone who was, but I suppose some people are. Or for some other reason? Maybe he has a lot of accounting "tricks" that do get noticed.

<<As I said before, it is not at all surprising that you got away with it...I would guess you could get away with it at least 99% of the time. Your use of the fact that you got away with it as justification that it was correct is ridiculous however....perhaps Bill Clinton has a job opening you might be interested in <g>. Oh, by the way, you might want to get a new CPA while you're at it. Or I could probably do your taxes and save you a bundle...>> I didn't say I got away with it, I said THE IRS AGREED WITH MY POSITION. As for you doing my taxes, I'll pass since it looks like you try to maximize your taxes. I'll close with, as you and el say.....JAJAJAJAJAJAJA Robbie
