Subject: Re: How Much for a Cold Fusion Web developer.

Although I agree with you on spelling, in a digital world where our written
resumes are scanned and our digital ones are 'processed' by computers, I
tend to write ColdFusion with both the space and without, just so that
someone looking for me who 'doesn't' know how to spell the proper name,
doesn't miss me.  Since alot of the companies today still use the 'old'
method of hiring, (contact HR, tell them what you need, they build a job
description and then search for it.)  I had tons of fun a few years ago when
having 5+ years of experience with Coldfusion MX was a requirement, when MX
had 'barely' come out with 6.1...

I'm just saying that spelling shouldn't always be a 'circular file' result.
Some of us are not only smart enough to know how to spell it, but also
intelligent enough to know when to mispell it.  Tons of great deals are
available on auction websites for those who know how to misspell the words
of the items they are looking for...  :)
