OK, I'll correct myself: The _alleged_ behavior is known as
"sockpuppetry" ...
I'm open to the possibility that there's some other explanation for you
and Tony Markos posting from the same email account.
Defenders of Glenn Greenwald suggested that all the people posting
supportive comments from his IP address were visitors to his house who
dropped by to use his computer, or that it wasn't Greenwald using
various pseudonyms, it was his Brazilian boyfriend (sockpuppetry once
removed, as it were).
Actually, I don't really care about the Markos/Lewis thing, except for
the slight humor value that serves to enliven a weekend working to meet
a pointless deadline. :-}
