    Big cheese.

    Fully authorized representative of a government.

    Thank you. I might add that to my business card.

    But first, copied and faxed your letter.

    If I fax this from my work, will it say it is from this paper or will it just show a phone number?

    Depends on who programmed your fax machine. But if your paper really gets rankled over you sending a fax for this, there are bigger issues there.

    Thanks, 21. It's a big help.

    You might also consider "Grandee," "Hereditary Poobah of the Exchequer," or "Mystical Panjandrum."

    As wicked points out, it depends on the programming of the individual unit. Might be best just to fax from home or Kinko's if you have concerns about it.

    You know me too well. I am the most mystical of all panjandrums. 8)

    (Sorry to make jokes on this thread, nothing funny about it.)

    They'd probably be more mad about spending the money.

    A 3-minute fax transmission might cost 50 cents. If they're really that upset ...

    Well, please don't get yourself in trouble, but try to send it from somewhere if you can. Thanks, Ang.
