Once again, Donovan was completely off the deep end when he wrote:
"Are you going after Girl Scouts of America for not paying taxes on their
cookies (I really like the mint ones best)?"

What the heck?!?!?

Uh . . . it would be kind of hard to "go after" them for not paying sales
tax on the cookies when they/we *do* pay sales tax.  And, not only do the
individual Girl Scouts selling the cookies collect the sales tax from the
customers purchasing the cookies, but the sales tax is paid to the
appropriate state agency.

Since my daughter has been actively involved in Girl Scouts for . . . let's
see . . . about 8 years, and since I've volunteered to be her troop's cookie
mom twice, I know how it works:  sales tax is collected and paid on each &
every box of cookies sold.

Not holding my breath for Donovan to admit that he was wrong *or* to
apologize for the malicious misinformation . . .
