          and interest for her 1996 tax year.  A notice of balance due                
          constitutes a notice and demand for payment under section                   
          6303(a).  Craig v. Commissioner, 119 T.C. 252, 262-263 (2002).              
               We conclude that respondent’s determination to proceed with            
          collection of petitioner’s 1996 tax liability was not an abuse of           
          discretion.                                                                 
          C.   Whether Petitioner Raised an Alternative to Collection                 
               Petitioner said at the hearing that she would pay her taxes            
          if respondent gave her copies of the law which states that she is           
          a taxpayer liable for Federal income tax.  Petitioner contends              
          that this is an alternative to collection.  We disagree; this               
          contention is merely a variation of her other frivolous                     
          arguments.  See, e.g., Crain v. Commissioner, 737 F.2d 1417 (5th            
          Cir. 1984); Koenig v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2003-40; Keene v.            
          Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 2002-277.                                          
               Accordingly,                                                           
                                                       An appropriate order           
                                             and decision will be entered.
