<HTML><HTML>Greetings,              I l= ive 52 miles west of Philadelphia. I charge $35-$40 plus parts. If the clien= t is more than say, 15 miles out of town, I charge an extra $10 non-local tr= avel fee. I have been doing this business for about 16 months. I get about 3= -4 appointments a week. I am told that my prices are reasonable. This has go= tten my foot in the door at several area schools and churches.             &nbs= p;  I suppose when the demand for my services goes up, so will my rates= . This area is tough, its 'Pennsylvania Dutch Country', and the poeple are a= lways looking for a bargain...they're tough. Julia Gottchall, Reading, PA </HTML>
