It is fairly difficult to leave no trace of your real identity. In this
case, either the person who sent the message was very careful and covered
all his tracks by using someone else's email account, or (as I suspect) he
just was trying to make a point. After all, the same person posted a test
message to rec.games.video.nintendo as cturley@wco.com before he posted the
message to comp.sys.apple2.

He really should have included his real address, but seeing as he didn't,
here is the address I got out of his postings (honest):
troy@hobbes.clinton.net
