Well, he's not the only one--how many "Mikki Barry"s do you think there are, for instance...? All of the articles in question have subject lines from articles actually posted by the people in question.

The same thing happened to me right after I made a posting. I would find it hard to believe that there is another Jeffrey James Bryan Carpenter using the net, especially after someone else complained that it happened to them. BTW, the message posted under my name was blank. jeff Jeffrey J. B.
