Actually, we hand out a multi-page list of websites and other free resources
at every course, along with about 40 other pages of info.

I understand not being able to afford $700 or $1000. But is this anonymous
poster thick or just unable to read? I pointed out that our wages for the
course amount to about $10/hour, and that we offer work trades and grants
for those who cannot afford it. I guess some people just have an unshakeable
prejudice that anyone charging money for their labor and services is an evil
bastard, no matter what the facts are.
