NBC Olympics' Discovery Service

[Nate Klingenstein]

There's a full-browser redirect to mine(Comcast) where it immediately  
recognizes that I'm subscribed for Internet access only.  Sad times.   
Hopefully, there's not too much variation between IdP's that the  
Olympics site has to accommodate.

One more amusing tidbit: apparently NBC Olympics requests a  
persistentId that expires at the IdP 15 days after creation.  A  
telecom asked me whether that's what the deactivationDate field in the  
Stored ID Data Connector SQL example was for:

Fun stuff indeed. :D
