I could easily be wrong. One of the many problems with this debacle is that it is difficult to find specifics. I would recant if I could just find some way to get on the tit for a measly $1 million, preferably for a one-man CPA/photographic project :). Maybe an FSA thing like documenting corruption on Wall Street.
