Doug--I think George needs a pay raise!

Look at it this way. George spends his life getting on and off airplanes and driving to out of the way places only to be ridden by guys like me.

Then you've got to factor in hotel/motel food, nights and days away from home, in all kinds of weather and under all kinds circumstances; inter-acting with people who have all kinds of axes to grind and all sorts of problems both real, personal and imaginary. Let's not forget George has to deal with all types of corporatists, every variety of politician and media personality.

He earns everything he gets and he should get more!
