Salary -- the other side of the coin

[Beth Friedman <bjf -at- wavefront -dot- com>]

Okay, so I've seen a bunch of answers about how to cope if your salary was 
too low to be a comparable number for your next job.

Is there any reason not to reveal your salary if you are in fact happy with 
what you're making (but would of course, like a bit more)?  Lots of people 
I know were making very good money -- until their company went out of 
business because of the dot-com bust.  Or they need a new job because 
they're moving.  Or there's a new manager the person just can't work with 
and wants to find a new job before one of them kills the other.

What advice then?
