>That's quite a range. I can see the low end...and would love to charge $250...but not here. Part of the answer to Gil's question is that rates really vary by area. No way I could charge $250/hr here in Salt Lake, but that might work for New York City.

That's really true Craig, there are some cities where you could not get away with charging what you charge on larger cities as New York, Toronto, Vancouver, etc. because the living standards are totally different by city, even if they are in the same country (pretty weird indeed <g>)
