  The Board of Equalization, an agency that collects one-third of the state's annual revenues, is not so sure.
  
  Last week, the board backed away from its own legal staff's opinion.In a 3-2 vote, the board moved to warn Auerbach that the advice he got from the board's legal division is not necessarily the opinion of the board itself and that he should not count on it.
  
  If successful, the greed of L.A. County politicians will undoubtedly increase the cost of everything from DirectTV, to cell phones and pagers.
