Ask for $150,000.

Seriously, do these calculators or other sites provide for regional differences in pay? What is the job market like in your area? If the unemployment rate is high, then you would expect to be in the lower end of the range.

Personally I would go with at least a 50th percentile figure or higher (in this case $41-45K). That way, you will not price yourself out of the range, but you will state that you have a value with your skill set and experience.
