Tom, my suggestion is not to worry. I'm fairly established down here in 'paradise' , and I just went 3 days with no calls..very unusual, but NOT unusual for September in 'paradise'. On Friday, I got 4 calls and booked 3 for 2 weeks from now(next week is "in ink", as they say). I send out reminders at the beginning of the month, and sometimes it takes 4-6 weeks for them to respond, IF they're going to respond. I expect the phone calls to pick up next week. In as much as I feel this profession is somewhat 'recession-proof', you're going to have some slow times no matter where you live..and 'slow times' is a relative term. What might be 'slow' for someone else might be 'busy' for you. Patience my son..that's one reason why we're all here is because we have demonstrated some patience, especially tuning around a chorus of cookoo clocks! -Phil Bondi (Fl.) phil@philbondi.com
