Quote: Lawrie L "Is that because of their quest to have as many aliases as possible?'"
No, those are the geeks who sit down at the front of the science classroom with their hands up at every question because only they know the answers, the aliases in their heads tell them that they know more than the science teacher because they read a book about it once, but in reality the contribution they make is minimal and often worthless, often the aliases in their heads become real people - thats when the illness has kicked in and they can often talk to two or three other people inside their own heads.
