Sched C, line 24b of Federal Inome tax

[paul bruesch]

Your best bet is to contact a tax specialist. That would not necessarily
mean the IRS, unless you want to call at least three times and average out
the answers you get. IRS telephone people are about as reliable with tax
information as, well, piano techs. Notice that your first response started
out with "I believe..." Piano tech business writer or not, I wouldn't bank
solely on that reply as a defense with the IRS.

Plus, rules change from year to year, depending on how needy the government
is (ahem).
