From here.

Ten minutes before Blue Pinto started this thread, I received an email from a guy saying he had responded to a comment I had made on his site, which I had never visited before. I recognized immediately that someone was posting stuff in my name.

So, to everyone out there getting upset... it wasn't me, and I apologize for the inconvenience. One of the prices of freedom is that we must tolerate the intolerable.

If you are implying I have an alter ego, I deny it.

And so do I.

You know, a virtual 2nd identity is much easier to hide the tracks of than a real 2nd identity. Clearing caches on IE much easier than hiding the boarding passes/credit card charges.

Welp, I've already contacted the owners of the various boards requesting the poster's IP addy. Then I'm going to slam it against IP's that have posted on dtman.com, and see if any stick.

If so, then the REAL ridicule can begin. :-)

I got the first IP address. Tonight or tomorrow I'll start the data mining.

I saw you browsing just now and hit your page for the first time in ages.

Went to your forum.

How does it feel that after... what... 6 months of operation, you've only been able to get 11 people to register, and from what I saw at least 2 of them are you? I'd have expected a genius of comedy, politics and religion of your caliber to have attracted a bigger crowd by now. Must be a fluke.

Either that or you're a leftie nutball and everyone knows it.

Either/or.

Some people have more to do than spend all day every day on an internet message board.

And that site has been much more successful than I ever thought it would be considering I don't advertise it or pull little stunts like this one to get free publicity for it.

I basicly only use it as a repository for useful links and articles. And there is a lot of good information there.

You should really quit being so defensive and take a look around.

You basically resort to name calling and say "Some people have more to do than spend all day every day on an internet message board...." and I'm the defensive one?

You being a social butterfly and not having time to manage your page 'o satire has nothing to do with the fact that for all your brilliance, you can't seem to find many people who share your paranoid dementia. Well, I call it 'paranoid dementia.' It may just be over my head, and I'm wrong. I do know Ive registered and lost 10 times as many forum users as you've ever had due to my page, forum, and writing skill sucking.

Oh! Oh! There's something else! At least I admit I'm fallible, and concede a point from time to time. You never have.... here, anyway. That makes you a zealot and a leftie nutball. In real life. How does that make you feel? Do you think people snicker at you behind your back?

You're going to ignore these questions too and try to turn it around, again. Should I start formulating responses to your next "I don't have a lot of free time for the interweb like u do" statements?

By the way, you've said twice now how the peeps posting all over the web in my name is a "publicity stunt" by me. Thank you for attributing that kind of genius to me. You must think my master stroke was actually CALLING it "free publicity" by turning the attack around on my trolls... who were fictional to begin with, right?

If it turned out you were wrong, would you feel stupid? Just curious. The way your mind works fascinates me. If you address nothing else in this post, address that one question.

If it turns out this yahoo isn't a leftie nutball, and is indeed centrist and mainstream in his wisdom and thinking, then I will indeed concede that I must be a right wing nutball, just like he claims.

At that point I will examine myself (my mind, perv) and figure out why I think the way I do, and attempt to move myself more toward the middle. I take it as an axiom, perhaps illogically, that the Truth lies more toward the middle than at the fringes, and I'm all about the navel gazing and self-improvement.

But I don't expect anyone to prove to me he isn't a zealot.
