Cc: RSayles@aol.com, hwysong@mindspring.com

Jonathan et al.,

Are you ready for a little wry humor?

I am forwarding a true life experience
with Our "friends" at the "IRS" [sic],
with explicit permission of the author.

If possible, please let me know the very latest 
on this one;  I am just too busy to confirm
all "statements" which appear on my monitor
(2 megabytes per day, and growing hourly).

I can understand why you would
be in the same situation too!

Be well! 

/s/ Paul Mitchell

p.s.  I will dispatch Pobot (my Robot)
to RUN his digital TRUTH DETECTION MICROMETER
vise (a very reliable instrument:), using
a fast fourier doubly inverted transform
firmware algorithm. [tilt]

Take it away, Pobot!

I Pobot, I, here.

Pobot tilts here!
(not to be confused with a "bow":)


>I said if that's true and if it's the OMB number is
>not considered valid in the federal registry what else do we use to file?
>She said it sounded like I was challenging the validity of the form.  I told
>her no that I was trying to verify what I read was true.  She abruptly said
>that the sixteenth amendment allows them to blah, blah.

Pobot assures you she did NOT
say "blah, blah."

(But, then again, you never know.)


  I said I understand
>what the amendments say but would OMB tell me why the number was wrong or
>why they wouldn't give them one.  She said we will collect the tax.

Pobot agrees that she probably
did say this.  Bets, anybody?


>I decided she was going to be a bitch and not answer anything straight. 

Pobot has a separate algorithm
for detection of this general "B" fault.
What do you mean by "going to be"?
Is that like "going to B"?


>I told her I would call OMB and see if I could get to the bottom of it.

Did ya?  Did ya?


>
>I got off the phone and I shook my head.

Pobot thinks that was a good idea
(shaking your head).


  This proves somethings that some
>Patriot literature says.

Pobot is dying to know here,
what do Patriot literatures say?
Pobot prefers fast fourier transforms
to much of the text-based processing
he is asked to perform daily --
too many grammar and spelling erors.
Pobot is still trying to understand
the difference between adverbs and
adjectively.


  However, I need to pick up the public notice and
>see what it exactly says.

Pobot cannot read without the
aid of human eyes.  Can we
get a few volunteers?
