What makes you think that this cannot be an alias?

Does Ed Koon abide by P4 or does he defy the possibility of losing his
echomail feed because he's protecting someone bysides himself from P4?

Where does it say that you must memorize it? P4 says that you only have to
be familiar with it's contents.

Why? You don't.

Irrelevant.

It does?

Quote P4 where it says that you 'must' use your real name.

Oh?

P4 quote where it says that.

What's that, make exceptions?

Been there, already.

And you're soak and wet, again..
