Hi Earle,

TANSTAAFL, my friend. That's "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch". 

While Webvisum is free (as in beer), at least, no cost to you, the service does 
cost to maintain. We're talking about server space and bandwidth, at the very 
least, possibly development costs as well. Remember when it went down for a few 
days not too long ago, because of a registration renewal SNAFU? What if they 
couldn't afford to renew the domain name or the space used to run it? They do 
take donations, too. 

What about the ill-fated Solona? It died right along with Bernardo. It was a 
one man show, for all intents and purposes, and done by him, alone, for love, 
because he perceived a need. 

What is it about blind people that we don't want to pay for things that deserve 
to be paid for?
