User names match... are you the original author? Why commenting in the third person?

it's still weird. if i'm talking about something i wrote 10 months ago i'd say something like, "when i originally wrote this i was trying to say ...".

not "when the author wrote this, he was trying to say"

Maybe it's because the author is a mathematician.
