PTD was a regular in sci.lang via Googlegroups, and suddenly jumped
into aue as a result of something that was crossposted there.
When was that?

 He became something of a notorious nuisance, a source of
misinformation about which he was in constant dispute. He was rather a
disruptive influence.
 He could contribute useful information on topics he knew something
about, but he became argumentative about things of which he was
altogether ignorant.
 The instance I remember most was when he denied that the town of El
Paso, Illinois, existed, and continued to deny its existence no matter
what evidence was put before him.
 
                                    (thanks... i'll look that up)
       The instance I remember most was when he (PTD) opined that Most Chinese words consisted of 2 Chinese characters.
I and another person gave examples
            ("Wo ai ni",
                 Wood, Water, sky, river, person, paper, ...
                 Most basic words and verbs are 1-character)
but that was when  PTD  became  [quintessentially PTD].
i couldn't quite tell
       1. if he was  convinced of some fact, info, or assertion, or
       2. if he was  just being like a 5 year old boy.

Another thing i remember about him...
a few months after exchanging 100+ messages in this way...
            he didn't remember my name (HenHanna)  at all.
Was he the same way toward  AUE  regulars?
