Randy:

I have several 2008 construction estimator discs, books, etc. and know how to use them. I also know that the only way to get a national consensus that is accurate is to poll people in other areas of the country to see what the boots on the ground are charging and not the bean counters at Craftsman Books, Means, or any of the other usual characters.

Since this is a professional forum, and since there is this small matter of this particular area being assigned to expert witness matters, I thought it appropriate to ask the question(s) here. When I received no answer I assumed that the readers were just clueless, like you, not to put too fine a point on it. I still do not have an answer to my question(s) from the members of this forum, but it's a moot point because I got them elsewhere. In a place where the people actually had the answers and were not so mean-spirited that they refused to share them.

Now, as to my TONE. Let me soften it a bit for you. Phuque off, please . . .

All better now?

Aaron
