However, I could just as easily call myself Barack Obama but it doesn’t mean I am him. This is the problem with the anonymous nature of blogs etc.

So unless someone reveals themself to actually be someone, their comments, on whatever subject, are irrelevant.

In the above case, it’s a kid having a laff. The IP is sourced at comcast in New Jersey and all other contact details are irrelevant.

It’s still funny though! :-)

The bit about the graphic can hold true though – which is why I read all emails as plain text, advise everyone else to do so, and use a pre-download checker as well, in my case, Mailwasher Pro, although there are similar programs and methodologies widely available.
