Lynn,

Cheer up, you're not alone.  Every week I run a advert I get every PC
programmer wanna-be, every person who ever heard of a H-1 visa and a
computer, etc., sending me their resume's....frankly, the talent's not
going to come out of the woodwork until the buck$ are there.  We've
already seen ads here in DC offering $150k/yr for AS/400 pgmrs...that's
75/hr...add margin markup and you can figure going rates now and where
they're going!
