Well, the subject says it all. :-( However, in some markets, doubling it would be decent. I know my friend would entertain the idea.
I was going to mention something about a posting for a position in Kentucky that -had- been going begging, at 65k, for quite some time now. They had a statement that "65k in Kentucky was like something in 6-figures elsewhere". I checked before posting this but it's no longer there. Hmmm... Gary Green I can use all the help I can get with my fight against cancer! Please support my efforts!
