  I've already added something similar to my proposal format.  In all
reality, I'm pretty amazed I've never had this problem before.
  I think the problem is the client waited for content approval before
having me get started.  There was stuff I could have done to start w/o the
content.

  Unfortunately, this client had their own contracts, so we didn't use
mine.  I was not as successful in negotiating various things into it as I
usually am.  In addition to proposals, I'll make sure my contracts gets a
line like that.

   I suspect my client may be looking for alternate vendors; although I
don't know if he'll have any success.  He asked me about alternate vendors,
and I said "good luck finding someone."  I hope it didn't come off as
flippant.  I sincerely wish I had someone to recommend. They were not happy
when I spoke of rush charges.
