Yeah if you've never had cable or satelite TV or just not a certified geek they you've likely never heard of him either. Although he is on the Canadian version of Call for Help. But no big deal, that just explains why he's doing so well with donations. I think it's great that he can do this with no sponsorship. Its also interesting that his web video stuff has as big or a bigger audiance than his TV show.
