Re: charging for the "commuting" part of telecommuting?

Yeah. And look what happened to them.  Let that be a lesson to you...

Seriously, here's another option, from my past life as a computer
applications consultant.  I operated a system whereby some clients paid
money on account.  As long as they were "in credit", I didn't charge them
for travelling time.  If they weren't, I did - but even then only one way,
at a lower rate, and only after advising them in advance.
