Then moving on to the next one. They were there for a week.My wife was an accountant and had that bill ran across her desk.I'm telling you, that is a job someone needs to get into. They got first class airfare to and from, accommodations in the best place in town, (which isn't much), rental car, meals paid for and $12 grand for that week. This was in the 90's.</blockquote>
