I should make a clarification to the following:
<<<By the way: there's a career track for people who get burned and can
warn others off... it's called training or consulting <vbg>...>>>
I don't mean tell others "Client Bad...consultant Good" and warn others
of bad clients. I mean learn from your own mistakes, find out what works
for you, and convey it to others. They're free to adapt or reject your
info as they see fit.
