No one is signing up? They are profitable before even going live. I personally know people from as far away as NZ who signed up pre-release just to show support and they were folks who had to TIVO the US FNC show or stay up until the wee small hours in order to watch.

I think what drives folks nuts about Beck is the way he manages to tease out relationships among events most folks think are not related. Then, he turns out to be correct. It _is_ a case of “sewing together bits and pieces”. Beck does not panic or sow panic, either. He advocates knowledge is power and preparedness plus community solidarity where everyone helps their neighbor. It is the antidote to panic mongering.
IMO, Beck has just begun.
Do you have any evidence of this? Glenn isn't shy about tooting his horn on the radio, but says little about this venture except to do the normal advertising.
