Wonder if the spelling mistakes are strategically placed then. Or does Mr. Barr really spell that way. He's like a 40+ year old married guy.

According to his quotes in [1], yeah, he really does spell and write that way, even in professional communication. It's kind of sad.

He's been pretending to be kids for years. He definitely fancies himself able to play the role (and I find him all the creepier because of it).
OT: There another comment here by trotsky here and now it's gone without a [deleted] placeholder, and I have show dead on. Just curious, I guess there is a perm delete admin functionality? Also didn't seem worthy of deletion..
While I wouldn't be surprised if it got deleted, if you elect to delete your own post, there's no placeholder left behind if there's no reply.
I deleted it, it was redundant.
>>...so your invincable.
He is an older man, married, that talks like a 14 yr old boy on the computer with words like "leet" and "pwn" even in company emails. Very sad to make the true hackers look illiterate.
