My hat is off to her vigilance in this, and other, public service here on The List. Those who delete will not delight in her insights. I was reasonably satisfied, but not ecstatic by the reductions in my commercial valuations. I saved MUCH in '02 payables, and will continue to save in '03. The sad flipside, of course, is that the revised valuations may indeed reflect the cash value of the property. If you cry when values go up, what will you do if they go down? Be careful what you wish, and petition for, you might get it.
