“What do I think, John? Well—IP address points to the States, but greater use of Correct English indicates user is at least familiar with UK or Commonwealth culture, as the Sherlock and Doctor Who fandoms also indicate. So either a private proxy to watch Firefly on Hulu, or more likely an expatriate. Cartoon physics and physics articles also indicate a strong reading in maths or physics, and moderate to native fluency in multiple languages indicates international background, substantiating user's expatriate status. Overall, John, I can confidently say that user's article on me flatters me greatly, although user got the time period wrong by about a century.”
