    In my case that a reasonable assumption.

      My account certainly is. You did a good job with me. But I dont think much of the others.

        Knowledge of the various denizens of the forum, certainly.

        You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

            I am starting to get a sense of why sockpuppets must do it. Some kind of cerbral mind game or maybe a bit like going shoplifting in your wife's underwear - it's the thrill of being caught? Already I feel myslef being drawn to create an alterego. Obviously, I'll avoid the 'Hi I'm a newbie contractor' routine and pretending to be a girl to flush out the desperate brigade. Daily Mail style propoganda is so passe and just pasting links from bbc to bump up the posting count too transparent. I'll work on it over the weekend or maybe the beer will of worn off by then and I'll forget I even thought about schizophrenia as a lifestyle choice.

                Don't know about that - that Carling Wotsit was convincing for a while.

                And don't forget Spartacus....

                  I believe it's a reference to the fate of Gregor Samsa.
