          respondent that their 1992, 1993, and 1994 taxable years were to            
          be examined.  In May 1995, Donna M. Hasbrouck, accompanied by               
          Brian Bras, an accountant with the firm that prepared                       
          petitioners’ tax returns, traveled to respondent's offices in

          McConaughy), the tax auditor responsible for the examination. Ms.           
          McConaughy had previously requested information from petitioners            
          regarding the deductions and losses reflected on the Schedules F.
