Reply #3: I remember when the doom & gloom guys could be found...

... only on local-access stations way back in the early years of cable, at, like, 2 A.M. I remember watching a guy describe how a crack in the wall of an underground passage of one of the Egyptian pyramids could be used to foretell the future, and when no one called into his show with breathless questions, he pulled the plug and the station went to dead air.
