    first part:
    No, is the short answer. the real answer is that i would suggest bumping your estimates across all parts of the budget to accomodate for a good percentage of these hours; insomuch they do not get bloated or have questions raised too much. ;)

    Wow. well, that is the nature and bitch of flat-rate work. but, in all honestly, this is the very reason why kill-fees are so critical to include in the contract. unless they are paying for true Discovery and an artifact (Statement of Work/Project Outline) that results from this, you want to be cobvered if this does happen (aka- hit by bus model). It is best to nclude this as then both sides have a vested interest in goign forth and not pulling out early for seeing greener pastures. yours is good faith effort through sweat endured, theirs is the money they will loose if they wan to walk.
