401K Rollovers - IRS Approval

[Guest BigAl]

This seems like a simple question. Does anyone know if it is possible to speak with the IRS either in person or on the phone, pertaining to difficult questions, such as the one I posted earlier on IRA to Roth conversions of after-tax contributions? I have e-mailed them, but it is not the same. The question is too involved. I searched the IRS web site, but there does not seem to be a direction in direct contact. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I am not sure how useful these listings are (I've never tried them), but they list real people with every section of the Code:

Alternatively, if there are any regulations, proposed regulations or other items (e.g., notices) associated with a subject, there is always a contact person listed. I've never dealt with Roths or IRAs, so I don't know what kind of pronouncements are out there.
