<DIV>Pat,</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for a fair question. This issue is not whether Saundra and I are successful. The issue is: are all groups who by legislative grace receive property (and other) tax exemptions abiding by the rules? The answer is: I have no idea. This is not a topic that lives or dies depending on the interest of Lund and Huskey. All taxpayers should be infested in whether or not their money (because we are supporting, however indirectly all exempt organizations) is being used in ways that uphold and respect IRS and state guidelines. I assume that 99.9 percent are. So, have no fear, this is a slippery slope that we don't intend to slide down - how could we? I would remind you however, that the moral high ground, by my accounting, is at least as large as the Weippe prairie, and there is room for lots of us to be on it.</DIV>
