some are not.  I fully anticipate being back on my feet within 12 months,
but I'm concerned if someone calls the command to put increased pressure on
me, I'll be charged with a failure to pay just debts, and end up in jail.
I'm 3 years away from retirement, and I don't want to blow it over this
craziness.
