Dennis's point on how problems are phrased in iTAR's is very important in my experience. My pet peeve is when I suspect that the assigned analyst is just stalling and responds with a request for information of questionable value to the problem. The more clearly you word the problem and the more query results you can post that demonstrate the problem and related information the better.
