                                       - 14 -                                         
          Nevertheless, petitioner chose to ignore well-established                   
          precedent of this and other Federal courts and pursue instead his           
          protest agenda.                                                             
               In view of the foregoing, we will exercise our discretion              
          under section 6673(a)(1) and require petitioner to pay a penalty            
          to the United States in the amount of $2,500.  Coleman v.                   
          Commissioner, supra at 71-72; Crain v. Commissioner, supra at               
          1417-1418; Coulter v. Commissioner, 82 T.C. 580, 584-586 (1984);            
          Abrams v. Commissioner, 82 T.C. 403, 408-411 (1984).                        
               In order to reflect the foregoing,                                     


                                             An order of dismissal and                
                                        decision will be entered.
