- To paraphrase a proverb, if it posts like a Mutlu, it insults like
- a Mutlu, and behaves like a Mutlu, it is a Mutlu.
-
- Serdar Argic is nothing more than a pen name. Since our friend is an
- accomplished researcher in the field of data communications and
- networking, I'd guess having his real name dragged all over USENET
- (in a rather exciting way I should add) is more of a liability.
-
- My characterization of this is Chickensuit, inspired after the man
- in a chickensuit appearing at Pres. Bush's rallies planted by Clinton
- supporters (for the debate issue).
-
- Hence my many references to him as Mr. Chickensuit, and my now-famous
- poultry articles and poultry .signature. From a News.admin.policy
- standpoint though, is there an ethical problem to post under an
- alias and a non-responding (or fake, depending on circumstances)
- user ID to avoid professional embarassment?
