1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    I told them to keep looking. I would not even consider signing a lease with that kind of company. They'll be nitpicking at move-out.

    See the vast spread in housing in different areas leads me to believe a $15 an hour blanket min wage across the country is kinda silly.

    That's solid size, sounds similar to mine other than I have a loft room so the difference in states is 500 dollars.

    Prices are high here too. Despite the fact that we're in the middle of nowhere rent is insane.... like broke down beat up slum houses for $12-1500 a month.

    It's why I decided to save and buy a wooded lot and just live in the middle with the animals like a Disney princess.

    How's the Internet, though? I refuse to move anywhere without high speed Internet and next day shipping.
