Mr Drobny,

Following the 2004 election - not the right term, I suppose - we exchanged views, professionally, about the outcome. I am also an accountant - from LA. We shared the same opinion about the probablity of that result. I think about 3/4ths of our peers out here think the same, maybe more.

I think you should be aware, I am openly stating that you should lead the charge for November 2006.

It is my opinion you are the guy to form the 501 to execute this move. I would personally love the opportunity - but it can never happen. I have a conflict - he is a 27 year old E-5 in the 2nd division. In ten seconds I'd sell my license to practice for that boy - and that is the least my parents GI bill could do, and I know you understand just what that means.

I do pray for consideration in the audit program, I do - and I thought about this carefully.

We better win this one - and I fully understand you know that.
