The only thing I didn't understand that was in any way material to the discussion is the historic background for recognizing wills. Sue me. Everything else was probably interesting to the tax lawyers, but not germane to what we were discussing.
This is starting to feel like my conference call this morning, which ended in the corporate lawyers on both sides yelling at the tax lawyers for both sides to just give us the fucking answer. We don't want to know what fucking code section it is pursuant to, or how these types of deals use to be done pre the 1986 amendments. Just tell us whether or not the structure works.
