"Toto" is actually an anonymous pseudonym of Adam Back, who resents Tim May's respected position on the list. "TruthMonger" posts are usually written by John Young and Robert Hettinga as a result of having the same drug connections and thus a common outlook on life when they are stoned out of their gourds. Lucky Green's recent posts are actually forgeries done by snow, and Kent Crispin has been sending posts purporting to be from Dr. Vulis. The fact is, forgeries have gotten so out of hand on the cypherpunks list that even the "can i join" and "subscribe me" posts of late are probably coming from John Gilmore, who is forging AOL return addresses in an attempt to bring calls for his return to hosting the list in order to save us from "The Night of the Living Newbies."

What a bozo! This is completely backward. Tim May is actually a complete fabrication, a clever construct of that literary genius Toto. The Tim May character is, however, based on a real character who died peacefully in his sleep over five years ago. Adam Back doesn't exist, either. You are, however, correct about John Young and Robert Hettinga being lovers.

This is completely screwed up, as well. snow has been on vacation for the past month. Lucky Green's posts are really by Dr Vulis. Kent Crispin is another fabrication of Toto's, this time with no apparent model. FishMonger

I'm sorry to hear that, Tim...

I resent that. Why would I create a personality of an ignorant, loud, foul-mouthed Mac luser? :-) --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps

There are actually only 13.5 people on this list, by my calculations. The thousand+ names/nyms are mere fronts. -r.w.
