Nice story--nice sale. Well done! I don't know what a Canadian dollar is worth, but 6 cents sounds like a pro-rate. Is it?

@skadder: CDN and USD are have been about at par for the past few years. At today's exchange rate it's exactly 6.16 cents a word US. So, yeah, pro-rate
@Wordcaster: It's interesting that you mention the title (which isn't the original); the present title was chosen by the publisher, taken from the dialogue in the story. It's funny that it became the title, since when I submitted to American publishers I actually removed that line.
