Paul,

It's perfectly legal for you to post your rates on your web site.  What is illegal is 
talking about those rates amongst other developers who offer similar services in an 
open, public forum.

Price fixing is no urban legend, and you are naive to believe otherwise.

The people most at risk would be the list owners and the community at large who would 
lose access to this wonderful talk list we have here.  The feds are pretty damn 
serious about this kind of thing and will even go so far as to confiscate the 
equipment which hosts the discussion software.

You can read all about Price Fixing here: http://www.antitrust.org/price.htm

You can talk about these things all you want, Paul, but my lips are sealed.  And 
anyone else on this list with half a brain (U.S. Citizens, of course) will keep their 
mouths shut as well.
