I think that GOD is also someone else, because he (or should that be He?) only posts when it would be amuseing for GOD to do so. I have a hard time imagining that anyone reads all these posts just to respond when it is perfectly appropriate and never at any other time. Of course, if it is an open secret who GOD really is, and Im the last to know, I am going to be very embarressed. ---

AFAIK, GOD remains unknown. It comes as a surprise, as rarely as BV puts up a posting, to find how many board members remember my origins. The UserName was the response in humour to another posting. BV doesn’t troll and will be astounded if you people ever figure out my “real” UserName. ---

Ok, it’s time to come clean. I’m everyone except you. That’s right. You are the only other person posting out here except me in my 3,000+ handles. Frankly it feels good to get this off my chest. It’s been difficult at times to be 3,000 personalities simultaneously. I apologize for this grand charade, but you see I’m a post-graduate psychology student and this has been merely field work in preparation for my Master’s thesis. I’ll continue this charade of pretending to be all the other members of this board until December 31st, then this will end and you’ll be left here alone… My apologies, Krispy Original DavidB Slythe Melin Drain Bead Uncle Beer RTA E1skeptic pldennison kellibelli etc, etc, etc, etc, ---

Well, I can’t honestly believe I need to point it out, but I am also FLYPWATCH.
