Another possibility is, that 'Tom Roberts' is a pseudonym used by physic students from Pakistan, who earn a few bucks for writing nonsense into the UseNet. Yet another possibility is, that the NSA has actually software to create natural sounding contributions to the social media and uses for this purpose certain 'persona'. It is also possible, that he actually believes what he says, (what would be even worse). So I quit trusting people from the Usenet and unless proven otherwise I regard them as hostile critters. TH
