Robert, you've mentioned before that GST is somehow qualitatively
different from other kinds of taxes.  Could you explain how?  I would
assume that you would just want an Expense account called GST, which
would be the account for a split in each transaction that has a GST
component.  Is there some reason that's not adequate?

Thanks,
