"There are folks here who know exactly who I am and what I do and you will note that nobody bothered to ask me. They hoped that so and so would pop in and comment.

In case you missed it, the primary reasons for the existence of both the club and this bb are the exchange of information. Hostile assumptions that you should have been personally asked about such matters on this subject are both arrogant and ridiculous. Your "expert" participation in this discussion still does not include any actual reference to tax code. Please show a real expertise in this area by posting something other than condescending personal attacks on those who have offered their opinions.
