Ken Smith Let's not jump to hasty conclusions here. It's perfectly plausible, for example, that Larry Whoever may have been at a party also attended by Larry Glbutter, who got bored, snuck into the computer room, made Post with the computer still on, and went out to the living room for some of those little hot dogs in the little bread rolls, when Larry Whoever saw the light on, entered the computer room, saw the Usenet client up, read someone making a compliment about Larry Glbutter, wrote a response in toward himself (Larry Whoever), because Larry Whoever was obsessively fixated on Larry Glbutter, to the point of imitating the career and interests of the man who was still in the living room stuffing his face with those little hot dogs in the little bread rolls (and now consuming shots of alcohol), when Larry Glbutter realized he left the computer on, so he returned to the computer room just as Larry Whoever was leaving it, and they collided - POW! - causing Larry Whoever to fall at an awkward angle, banging his head on the oak dresser, knocking him unconscious, and causing him amnesia, following which incident Larry Glbutter attempted a weak coverup by making a mental note to avoid posting on Usenet again as Larry Glbutter, while Larry Whoever, with no memory of the whole incident, continues to post, now insisting he is not necessarily Larry Glbutter, while failing to confirm that he is not Larry Glbutter.
