I think that the evidence is pretty strong that Sue isn't Larry.

How likely is that?), a great deal of sensitivity to the feelings of others, and a beautiful capacity to find symbolism. I could be wrong about any or all of these, but they are my impression on reading her posts, both here and from the new-age religion group.
Isn't a "Kragen" a fictional sea beast, something like a giant squid or octopus? Something with tentacles? And isn't Kragen's user name, xentrac, close to an anagram for tentacle? And isn't unm the University of New Mexico, adjacent to Detweiler's home state of Colorado? And here Kragen is praising Sue D. Nym for having a "beautiful capacity to find symbolism", when "her" posts seem to be random garbage? And didn't all of Kragen, Sue, and the various anonymous Detweiler posts all appear at about the same time? And hasn't Detweiler frequently discussed the use of multiple pseudonyms to mutually support and praise each other in order to build up an illusionary reputation? Makes you wonder...

No, that's a "kraken".

Uh, no. "tenracx"? "rentacx"?

No, Kragen Sittler long predates "Sue D. Nym". And frankly, I wouldn't care if he were Detweiler, because he doesn't act like a loon. You, on the other hand, are skirting that line. Eli ebrandt@hmc.edu
Man, when I got this post, I just about fell off my chair laughing. nobody@shell.portal.com:

No, that's a 'kraken'. :D

No, it's 'Kragen' rot13'ed, with a 'c' added to the end. :D

So? Are you suggesting that being 200 miles away rather than 1000 miles away makes it easier to get a fake account?
And here Kragen is praising Sue D. Nym for having a "beautiful capacity to find symbolism", when "her" posts seem to be random garbage?
Well, you see, I associate with people who think in the ways she is accustomed to thinking, and I can see the beauty in them. I suspect that most of the cypherpunks don't.
And didn't all of Kragen, Sue, and the various anonymous Detweiler posts all appear at about the same time?
No, I've been on the list as to1sittler@apsicc.aps.edu, xentrac@(I can't remember).unm.edu, and here, since right before clipper broke. This doesn't, of course, prevent me from being LD. But I'm not. Eric Hughes might remember me. In fact, he might even give me the "most abusive unsubscribe message" award. *sheepish look*.
And hasn't Detweiler frequently discussed the use of multiple pseudonyms to mutually support and praise each other in order to build up an illusionary reputation? Makes you wonder...
LD thinks I'm Eric Hughes. If you like, I could email you a bunch of messages I exchanged with him one midnight. Gee. I've never been accused of being Larry Detweiler before. :D Kragen

Gee. I've never been accused of being Larry Detweiler before. :D I have, join the club.
