I'll admit I'm mildly curious, but it certainly doesn't keep me up at 
night. As mysteries go, there are many rather more interesting ones. The 
Internet is full of people pretending to be something they're not to 
enhance their stature, or just for sheer sport. In this case, it's a 
harmless little game that seems to give you great delight, and that I 
don't mind playing along because it sort of spices things up a little bit.

Well, I'm just silly like that. I fall for things like the Nigerian heir 
scam, stupid card tricks,  Pitino's coronation, Obie's subsequent 
ascendance as coach, "snakes" like Danny Ainge all the time...

...which is precisely why I believed the relevant part of your joke - 
the whole thing is so farcical that the braindoc seems capable of 
anything. It's always the priors...

May I reciprocate? You know much I treasure your posts and hang on to 
every word of them, don't you? Just do me a favor and keep up the 
suspense, the incensed Celtics owners breathing down your neck be 
damned. This picaresque aspect is very important; otherwise, the whole 
thing would lose a lot of luster and turn into a banal Clancy novel. But 
you knew that, and would never do such a foolish thing, right?
