This is a surprising amount of information relevant to the Singularity that Glenn Beck is familiar with, including people like Luke, Anna, Eliezer, and Michael.

Could Glenn be part of Lesswrong? Is there a possibility that Glenn Beck has read the LW sequences?

Say what you will about Glenn Beck, he is a fairly well read person. It doesn't surprise me so much that he knows of these people, from what I know of him.

I have been impressed on his understanding of Hayek. He knows his Road to Serfdom.
