Thanks much for the info. My IRA is a Roth; I made more than the
maximum income allowed to be eligible for the tax deductions of the
traditional IRA, so I figured there was no benefit to a traditional
IRA. (Is that accurate thinking?)

By taxable account, do you mean a non-IRA/non-retirement account --
i.e., what I would think of (in layman's terms) as "normal investing"?

Thanks!
Mike
