[BC] Making engineering pay

[Mark Humphrey]

For the sake of comparison, here are the published rates of two
well-known contract/consulting engineers:

FWIW, my standard rate is $85/hr, but like Craig, I will discount
10-15% for good clients or in special circumstances.  As always, it's
a matter of supply and demand -- some contractors in this area get
$90/hr.
