32. As explained by the IRS, the statute of limitations is not "7 years." It never has been.

Haven't you previously claimed that the statute of limitations is "7 years"? Hasn't it previously been explained to you that the statute of limitations is not 7 years?

Depending upon the circumstances, the statutory time period is 3 years, 6 years, or the statutory time period does not run at all.
http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/epch1102.pdf

The three and six-year rules do not apply to:
Filing a false or fraudulent return - IRC section 6501(c)(1).
Willfully attempting to evade tax - IRC section 6501(c)(2).
Failing to file a return - IRC section 6501(c)(3).
In these instances, the tax may be assessed or collected at any time.

and that is EXACTLY what you are proposing DrDan Jul 2012 #24
