     So, you're basically telling us that Essential could lose its tax 
exempt status because of what we discuss here (essential.org has a 
disclaimer, if I'm not mistaken - Jamie Love might be the proper 
authority to tell us about the ins and outs of this), then you go on to 
continue the argument by adding more comments to that pile. This leades 
me to conclude that you're either not comprehending what you said, or 
that you want Essential and AM-Info shut down.
