No, he said:
"As for the date thing, I have decided to use the Julian calendar
rather than the Gregorian.Makes sorting easier."

which is interesting, because now he says:
"I decided to order by artist. I'll do it by date later."

Richard is a genius. He googles around a bit, finds $anyInterestingTerm
and constructs a question or statement around it. Then he leans back,
enjoying how all hell breaks loose at c.d.m. (and sometimes other
newsgroups).

In fact, that's what he did when inventing Dan Jacobs: he is
intelligent enough to not only create a fake person, but also a
plausible question to an equally plausible situation.

It doesn't matter whether or not he understands what he writes or asks.
He has the ability to make it sound close to somewhat realistic and at
the same time he leaves open enough room for reactions to the situation
at hand, knowing that the ensuing discussion will go way beyond that.
In order to 'facilitate' this broader discussion, he takes part of it
and soon enough, he will ridicule good advice and act as if no-one is
willing to understand his 'obviously clear question at hand'.

Not many trolls on Usenet do their job as brilliantly as Richard, guys.
