One thing, I can't see an obvious way to become a premium member. I think you might get more conversions if it was way more obvious on the front page.
Not only have I worked for insurance companies, but if I ran one, this is exactly what I would do if I was told everyone had to be treated equally. How can I charge men less if I know that they are going to make more claims?

This ruling is terrible, I have been benefiting from having my girlfriend on my insurance for 10 years.

Or would that make me pedantic?
Ignore any negative feedback (unless constructive), haters will hate ;)
The way the MDHP got press attention was with a press release, would be worth having a look at for you I think. What bothered me about the MDHP was I felt it was a fraud, he posted about having massive university debts, then as soon as he made the million he quit uni and moved to a big city to invest the money. Which makes me feel it was a bit fraudulent.
Gratz!
However sometimes it's important to get function over form?
I don't want to bring down your site, but if they couldn't make it profitable that says something to me.
However, I liked Wave, and wanted it to stay, so if you system is good I'd use it, but I wonder if enough people would?
(oh and the rotating comic, totally agree very annoying)
My advice, buy the book, read the titles, then read the chapters (translates beyond Java imo).
Your body is a machine built for changing fat into carbohydrate and then into ATP.
If you give your body too much carbohydrate it takes what it needs and converts the rest into fat. The fat you eat is already fat, so it just stores that too because it has already taken the raw carbohydrate it needs.
If you reduce your carbohydrate intake and eat more protein and fat (read "red meat" but also chicken, pork, non root vegetables et cetera) then your body will stop being lazy and start doing what it did for thousands of years before we invented preservatives and microwaves and cocacola and take that fat and make it into carbohydrate.
If you give your body less carbohydrate then you are doing it a massive favour.
That said, everyone is as genetically different as they are similar, so what works for some people wont work for others. For instance, Doctors are currently researching a hormone that comes from your bowls that tells you that you need carbohydrates, like all hormones they can over produce and make you crave them even if you aren't hungry, and they are working on a blocker which will help the super obese and probably reduce the need for any gastric band surgery.
Good luck
One thing that really really puts me off web sites is if I can't tell shipping costs quickly and easily. Your site is good in that at least you don't have to register to see the total cost, but you do have to add a product and go to the cart to find out shipping. If your shipping is a flat $8.45, I'd suggest having that under a FAQ type area.
Also gift wrap options are good.
I'd be interested to know who you are hosting with. Is it a 3dCart or Shopify type or did you go solo?
Although I comprehend the dream you don't have to be in California to be working on a start-up.
I actually want Google to acquire my company for this day alone.
