I'd invented a code and wanted to test it.
The contents of my profile used to be in the same code too, because like most people I'm a vain prick who likes to talk about himself - but unlike most people I don't want people to know who I am, so I compromised by talking about myself for a paragraph and making it look like gibberish.

I've got four or five different screen-names on other forums, this is partly to limit traceability and also because I get bored with using the same name over and over again.

I remember him being really abrasive when I first encountered him (probably some years ago) but this hasn't been the case recently at all.

wondered if it was the same person, or in fact the same Woodside
