Psuedo, you're a simpering dweeb. Here are a couple of links to sites that describe some of the work done by the organization with which I was once associated. As you say, the NG has many bright members who can decide for themselves (assuming they gave a ratz patoot in the first place)whether your charge that I was engaged in a dishonest business and involved in "tax fraud" has any merit or not. There were some abuses throughout the entire boat donation industry, and the firm I worked with was probably not a vestal virgin. No business (or person) is perfect, or absolutely ethical 24/7/365. That business morality doesn't automatically reflect on the morality or the ethics of everybody involved. In recent years, we have seen many news accounts of pedophile priests and attempts by bishops, etc, to cover up the crimes of these guys and just transfer them from church to church rather than deal with the problem. I assume, by your standards, that if ever you meet a priest you're going to assume he's a pedophile? If there are 10 people working in a church and it is ultimately discovered that the priest has been having his way with the altar boys in the confession booth, would you consider the church secretary, the janitor, etc etc etc pedophiles as well? Would you consider any church to be the domain of a pedophile? Still have any of that literature you claim I gave you 6 or 7 years ago? If so, take a look at it. Every page had bold statements urging people considering the donation of a boat to check with their own attorney or tax professional before going ahead. Most did, and some of them discovered that for various reasons, (such as AMT, specific bracketing, etc), it wouldn't be a good idea to proceed. Fine. In my role, I wasn't in the business of giving tax advice but I could explain the mechanics of the program as it would be implemented for people who chose to make a donation. We continuously urged prospective donors to get some independent advice before donating. http://www.miami.edu/campaign/donors...s_dp_aims.html http://www.aims-nw.org/seattleservice.htm http://www.mpcfaculty.net/tami_lunsf...returnsweb.pdf http://www.miami.edu/campaign/donors...s_dp_aims.html As far as I'm concerned, that's my portion of this "discussion".
