Switching gears a little bit...

One thing I would rate as a 10 is solving a general problem with our contract: it's not enforceable or favorable enough, because it isn't simple enough. Every section carries exceptions that invalidate the "meat" of the preceding text.

I would like to see a contract that is cut in half, by taking an axe to all the "to the extent possibles", and "excepts"... I've been furloughed by one of those. And by Joe Kolshack (hardest decision he ever made).

I think arguing for "a simpler contract" sounds a lot better than "a more expensive contract". Tell everyone who will listen we only want a simpler, cleaner contract. Scope, for example, can be made A LOT simpler and easier to understand...
