Right. Now I remember. It's a very infrequent occurrence that I bid. I only go
to the site when they e-mail me and it's roughly once every two months. I'm
happy to report that I've begun telecommuting as a freelance technical editor
for a large consulting group in the western US. Now if I could only quit my
day job, I'd be pleased. So far it's about a job a week, but maybe it'll grow
into more.
