We all should be glad to have Andrea's very well informed posts. 
That is why she can use an obviously fictitious email address even 
in the moderated biz.comp.accounting newsgroup. I only wish she 
would identify herself with her title and company. It would make more 
of us respect her answers, while not making us feel she hides company 
influence. 

Intuit (which owns QuickBooks, Quicken and TurboTax) does most 
things unusually right. They probably do more for small business profits 
than all government programs. Even when they are wrong, few of us can 
come close to matching their record. That is why Andrea should proudly 
proclaim her status on all posts.
