Maybe, as I suggested, he's employed to do that, both from work and
from home. I don't know that to be true. Just offering it as another
explanation.

If his reputation is shot (and it is) how can he hurt it more by being
abrasive to linux users?

I haven't checked that. I know Comcast is nationwide. I have no idea
how the IP range is divvied-up across the US.

Agreed. I also know Miguel has been abrasive more than once on his own.
Like I said, either it's a very good troll or it's Miguel. The only
thing that makes me question whether it's the flat one or not is that
Flatso usually can't avoid giving s/h/itself away rather quickly, and
unquestionably. This one has some questions attached. Maybe Flatti
finally figured a way to avoid dropping so many clues at once.
Anyway, I won't claim to know one way or the other. Either way,
whomever it was made sure to be a dick about things.
