Just a guess, but how about "It doesn't pay well"? Jeff -- A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it. -- Einstein Mark Wade doesn't do it for money. That's kind of my point. Working for a living and other things like family obligations, always take priority over hobbies. Jeff -- A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it. -- Einstein |

If he wasn't, then the monthly payment to the ISP that hosts the site would end, and the website would vanish. Ergo...it continues to exist, which means that the ISP is getting paid on a month-to-month basis to host it, which means he's sending them checks to pay for it, which means he's fine... or at least alive and financially solvent in one form or another. :-) Pat |
