First: I do not use socks.  I do believe Onion Knight is just who he says,
someone who used to post but was chased off by Steve and crew - likely in
CSMA.  I even have a guess as to who, based on the writing style, but I do
not know if I am right or wrong.

But the accusations of sock puppetry are completely false. More than that,
Carroll knows it - hence his claim that Onion Knight posted as me (or vice
versa, whatever he meant).  Steve was just trying to rile up controversy
because he knows he and cc were wrong in the idiotic debate we were having.
See my .sig for details.
