		<description>I have a physical disability which impacts my ability to work. So I learned to live on what I earn. This is long-standing, and affected my children&#039;s lives too. More recently, I&#039;ve had three surgeries in the past 18 months related to cancer. My how life does impose itself on us. I have not reneged on any rent or betrayed my principles in order to live. I could have gone back into whoring, really I could have, but I won&#039;t. 

Someone put this forth, and I apologize to whomever did for putting it here with attribution: 

How much would he have wanted to be paid to link to racist sites?</description>

		<description>Ben, great post.  I&#039;m an on-again/off-again co-blogger at Alas, as well as one of Barry&#039;s housemates (my husband and I rent the downstairs apartment with our two children).  Wanted to answer some of your questions, as well let you know that I am definitely pointing this information out (the things at the bottom).

Some of what you brought up I can actually say has been a factor that I&#039;m aware of in Barry&#039;s decision.  He attempted last year to help get funds from the readers of Alas, and some helped out a little, but ultimately not enough for Barry to be consistently losing money each month running the blog which was becoming a hard thing for him to negotiate with his server admins who couldn&#039;t handle the traffic that the blog generated.  He then switched to trying for feminist friendly advertisements and while he got a few, again it wasn&#039;t enough to pay the bills.

Beyond that, we (the overall household) live a happy little village life, but it&#039;s true as Barry mentioned that we had a rough summer.  One of our housemates (the one who was having a hard time making rent) had a pulmonary embolism and was &gt;</description>
