Joe continues our dialogue <\/b><\/i>by posing some questions:<\/p>\n
With the information age, I suspect that assuming a new identity will become more difficult-<\/i><\/p>\n
Indeed. In particular the recent unpleasantness with regards to the reactionary Islamists has made travel more problematic. I am entertaining the possibility of relocating to a less technology-pervasive locale, but I am relatively proof for the near term future. Who knows what the next few decades will bring?<\/p>\n
I was wondering why you would put yourself out there on public display… You are stating your nature to a very public forum…I am sure you are counting on most that see this post as the musings of someone a little unhinged-<\/i><\/p>\n
I wonder myself. I have learned to trust my instincts and I felt that this was a worthwhile exercise, hence the weblog. I do not count on being considered unhinged; rather I count on being simply dismissed. To date Joe is the only person ever to engage in any sort of conversation regarding this.<\/p>\n
How many others through the centuries have you “came out” to…In one of your posts, you said that you have revealed yourself to a “Mr. & Mrs. Professor”, of course they didn’t really believe you until you showed up on their doorstep half a century later looking as young as you last left them. (BTW, how goes it with “Grandson”?)-<\/i><\/p>\n
Very few, for obvious reasons. Even those I have confided in have mostly viewed me as simply a harmless eccentric except in situations where my nature was undeniable. Mr. And Mrs. Professor did indeed believe me, but even belief can be an ephemeral thing- it lodges in the brain and is held as some kind of phantasm until confronted with the indisputable. As for my efforts on their behalf, I realize I have revealed far too much (despite my deliberate obfuscations) and I shall comment no more.
