So, referring back to the OP, what was the count of those that agreed BS&T is a ponzi? It's at least 5 (out of 55000 members). Even Ross Perot polled 18.9%.
This might not be completely accurate, but here's what I've seemed to find in this thread:

So, out of the people that had some kind of opinion, approximately 30.5% of posters here believe that it is a ponzi, 61.1% think it's not, and 8.3% are neutral.
