<FONT FACE="Garamond"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:14.0px'>A long time ago I decided that keeping track of mileage and adding it to the bill was a pain. I sat down one night and drew concentric circles at 10-mile intervals on my road map, centered on my neighborhood. Then I decided how much more I would charge for each interval, and quoted everyone a flat fee for tuning. You might use smaller intervals and a different amount of increase in an urban area (my biggest circle was 70 miles out), but the idea is the same. Keeps things simple.<BR>
