Avery I think you should figure this on what you're cost would be to them, as Ken pointed out. Never mind what an outsider would charge. That's their problem. They want to know what it is costing the university to have you do the work. If they think they can get the same quality of workmanship as you are providing for less money, they might opt for that. (I doubt that they will, but I think that is what they are looking at.) Wim </HTML>
