So, dgordon, I have a question for you.

Since that always unsettling call from the Feds, you obviously have continued to by bonds with you and your daughter as co-owners. Have you limited those purchases to the annual gift limits set by the IRS ($11,000 in 2002), or set by the treasury for EE & I bonds? Also, have you claimed either as a "gift" on your federal taxes, or is that not a taxable event until those bonds are redeemed?
