They did a search on Google for information on a pipe bomb case and found this post where I commented about being quoted by a newspaper on the case in question.
I wonder why the IRS is interested. It's possible some folks at the ATF show up as within the IRS on because they share the same block of IP addresses or something (the ATF used to be entirely within the Department of the Treasury). But I find it more amusing to believe the IRS thinks there is money to be collected from people involved in the manufacture and sale of pipe bombs.
