Maybe it's my lack of a high paying office job, but that sounds like a pretty sweet gig to me.
Yes, how much does the web server cost anyway? Isn't he at least doing better than breaking even? Not to criticize though. I like the old-school layout & the large # of posts. Not sure if I would like to pay though, it's a nice resource but hardly a one-stop info site.
