Thanks Wallflower, yes I was hesitant about making that comment - I did research previous comments but not as far back as you did - I do think it's important to question authenticity of a comment esp. when it's a PRETAY big claim like above. If it's true - good luck to JimmeyL - if it's not he still seems to add a lot of value here with his comments.
I believe he has the position that he implied. However the tone of his message invited the find-fault investigation. It was a nice scavenger hunt. You were brave to confront his seemingly many-standard-deviations-removed-from-his-NewsYC-composite-comment-profile.
If someone says something to me, online or irl I tend to believe what it is that they say.
Maybe I should be more suspicious but I think that if you think it is 'brave' to start throwing suspicion in public as an anonymous newly signed up user to a forum that we probably have a different definition of 'brave'.
