    I agree with the other comments.

    An additional one: we're getting down to
    the end of the fiscal year and there's
    not much left in the kitty, so I would
    prefer this be either real inexpensive,
    or that it be a negotiation that carries
    into new fiscal (understanding we'll
    probably have poor materials budgets next fiscal).
