fine distinction

Today I learned that "realization" is not "recognition," at which point, I lost my last grasp on understanding what is "taxable event." Nothing makes sense in federal income tax. The words in my casebook can be a random assortment of "recognizable" words that form meaning I cannot "realize." I am seriously scared. I don't think this tax stuff will come together...

In other news, "reverter" is not a "possibility of reversion." Ah, law school.
