Actually you consider that perfect proof?  Scary.

I'm more irritated the same question is cross posted than anything else.  Having
said that, I've got about 3 email addresses, 4 if I count work, so the fact that
a question is asked under a different email address means nothing -- in fact, I
refuse to post my real email address to forums for spam reasons.  While I am on
this side of the fence, let me also say that I feel it's only fair to judge
someone based on their contributions HERE, not in a newsgroup or elsewhere on
the internet.  But, that's up for the moderators to judge.

Now, having said that, let me jump the fence for a minute.  Digging a bit
further for his posts in those newsgroups under those aliases yields a lot of
"suspicious" activity.  Is this that same person?  Hell I don't know.  Unless
this Fred Wilson starts "pretending" to be the real Fred Wilson or is otherwise
abusive, it's of no consequence (to me, anyway).  Some would argue that's the
beauty of the internet -- anonymity.
