Are you really gullible enough to believe everything you read on Usenet? A gentleman who goes by the name of Nosy has been making the absurd allegation that I am really a pseudonym for Brian Ross. He's doing this in a rather lame attempt to annoy me.

I'll be happy to prove that I'm not a pseudonym for Brian Ross right after you do. I mean, isn`t it a bit a suspicious that you ALWAYS get comprehensively trounced whenever you argue with him? Surely a real person could occasionally win one? Could it be that Brian has invented you to make himself look good? Well?

I have on several occasions asked Brian to deny that he has ever engaged in this sort of bizarre behaviour, he has never replied.

Well I deny that I am Brian Ross. If you don't believe me, you must concede that Brian has denied your bizarre allegation.
