If we look at another game that took its sweet time to become sociably accectable, lets say POKER as our guide.
That's a good anaolgy, but take it a step further, and I think you'll find the real answer.
When will D&D have regular TV advertising like the World Series of Poker, etc.?
When Joe Viewer believes he has a shot at making some serious money by playing competitive D&D.
When did Magic: The Gathering get its TV exposure? When WotC started running BIG CASH tournaments.
Get the RPGA to start posting some major prize money for D&D tourneys and you'll see gaming start to pick up all over.
Heck, I think Pandahead should do this with X-Crawl! It's custom made for it!
It has ALWAYS been about the money.
