I saw another NY based contract on the CF-jobs list but once I saw who posted 
it, I knew I'd never get it. Why? Because I'm too experienced. If you have 10+ 
years in ColdFusion your almost un-hirable. If you ask below your worth, the 
company is worried that you will not be happy and will jump ship first chance 
you get. And that's if you take below your worth to begin with. If you ask your 
worth, the head hunter will not send you to the company for fear of the company 
rejecting the resume out of hand. Or to be more real, the head hunter will try 
to talk you down to what he feels is the highest the company will go because he 
gets a percentage and really wants to get it. If you ask for a real bid, the 
chances are the head hunter will just not send it along at all. Too many high 
bids makes the head hunter look bad.
It's a dangerous cliff. Grow and get better but if you get too good, you fall 
off. :(
