                                       - 12 -                                         
          Warner v. Commissioner, supra at 2 (“the Commissioner, confronted           
          by millions of returns and an economy which repeatedly must be              
          nourished by quick refunds, must first pay and then look.  This             
          necessity cannot serve as the basis of an ‘estoppel’.”); see,               
          e.g., Brown v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1996-100, affd. 181 F.3d            
          99 (6th Cir. 1999); Wilson v. Commissioner, T.C. Memo. 1991-491.            
          We therefore reject petitioners’ estoppel claim in the instant              
          case.                                                                       
                                     Conclusion                                       
               We have considered all of the other arguments made by                  
          petitioners, and, to the extent that we have not specifically               
          addressed them, we conclude that they are without merit.                    
               Reviewed and adopted as the report of the Small Tax Case               
          Division.                                                                   
               To reflect our disposition of the disputed issues,                     


                                             Decision will be entered                 
                                        for respondent.
