This sounds like a good topic for a Journal Q&A feature if we can generate enough discussion. I'd be willing to do an article on it, but I'd need several of you to help me define the problem, and several more of you to share and discuss positive and successful approaches to the bidding process, as Fred points out. Q&A, as you know, follows a round-table discussion format most of the time, so it would be a good venue for hashing over a number of approaches. If you're interested in helping develop this, let me know. John R.
