Aluminum Foil is good! I wear mine all the time.
ATW, I do not believe this guy is authentic. It's not just the spelling vs syntax - I said that was "a" clue. It was one of the first things that caught my eye. His spelling was so bad that it had to be worked at, literally about 90% of the words were misspelled. Yet, if you ignored the misspellings the overall phrasing and syntax were from an educated person, with some exceptions that sounded contrived. It was as though he (or she) was trying to "talk down" and over-reached.
There are a lot of other clues far less subtle. To me the whole thing smells wrong. But you know, I could be wrong - so I wrote a response directly back to him challenging him on some points, to which he did not respond.
There are people out there that are attracted to the anonmymity of forums to create little false scenarios to see how people respond. I don't think it is particulary dangerous (actually I don't wear tin foil most of the time
) but it is a game they play, and the difficult part is to see through their posts. Had Dad been a bit more subtle he would have been a lot better at it, he did have a fairly decent scenario that he designed to raise peoples hackles....
This is merely my opinion of course, which counts for just about not much. I too misspell quite a bit, and typically have to edit and re-edit to catch most of them - but they don't approach the amount in his original posting.
Just to be absolutely fair about this:
To Dad: If I have wrongfully characterized your posts I apologize. If you are authentic and you are having the problems you say, then there are several good responses on these posts that you can safely use. If I have wronged you, I would truly like to hear your response to my questions, it would be interesting to see how I reached the wrong conclusions.
Now I have to take my foil cap off cause it's shower time
