I wouldn't be so hasty to turn this down. It's been a long time since I was
unemployed but I clearly remember the concept of what numbers are greater
than zero. If I had to, I'd take this job, treat it as temporary, just as I
have treated every job I ever had. What they are offering is certainly
enough to temporarily finance an ongoing job search elsewhere. I've gotten
to the point in life (age does factor in here) where I have to look at every
opportunity as being possibly the last.

In light of this new information below, think I'll send them an email and
say:
"Hey glad to hear it about the pay more than fairly, oh by the way, it looks
like you're missing a 1 in front of the salary on your web page".
