I didn't actually need to look at the headers to figure that out (and I
didn't bother to look there either). The content was sufficient for the
deduction. Wasn't exactly a very difficult deduction either.
I will leave it as an exercise to the student to draw whatever
conclusions might be merited from the observation that someone appears
to post under multiple pseudo-anonymous names without any explicit
indication of the connection.
I prefer to let people know who I am, even though it occasionally
results in annoyances (such as people bitching at my employer). The
annoyances are part of the cost of establishing a reputation.
