So, I tried to track down some stylistic similarities between
senders.
Well, I was expecting tons of entries with "...rachel..." in my
program output, but nada!
To keep things cool and not throw anyone under the bus, I'll only
mention these if they are already known equalities or are suggested
by sender name similarities.
(But I got to say - here and in most other newsgroups - I didn't
really find many surprising style matches that would hint at
the same person using different handles. So legit "sockpuppet"
accounts are actually pretty rare among heavy posters!)
However, even in the following cases, wrong matches are totally
in the cards: There are definitely different folks out there
who are honest-to-goodness two separate people, but they've
got writing styles that are like two peas in a pod.
'really real' 'don freeman'
'The Hysterical Bride' 'THB'
'The Hysterical Bride' 'TheHystericalBride'
'The Bloomfield Buddy' 'The Bloomfield Bloviator'
'Martin' 'Upbeat & Cheerful Martin'
'Treadleson' 'treadleson'
'Tif' 'tif'
'Lone Pilgrim' 'Pilgrim'
