    Why did you think you should clarify that? The guy is dead, isn't he? :~

    Your time will come, if you let it be right.

    But am I me? Or is someone else typing this. There isn't even a photo that the 11/12 CPians who have met me face to face could verify is or isn't me.

      Blimey! I'd steer clear of that area if I were you - don't want to get mistaken for the other chap! Or his son.

        The dead can't post to CP... So stop posting right now :-D

        if(this.signature != "") { MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature); } else { MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found"); }

          A quick search on LinkedIn shows 141 people with your name in Australia. Some of them are "Mike Martin"s though. That excludes the unlisted ones.

                    have you never seen CSI they can see minute traces of blood from decades earlier, its a bit like how they can "zoom in" on a single pixel and "enhance the image" to reveal vital info (car plate, text on a mobile or even the murderers face) its science init

                                They are really fair in CSI with "enhancing" : just saw two episodes yesterday in which it went: - "Can you zoom more?" - "This is the best I can do" - "Oh, OK, so nothing of much help here". This probably balances all the other improbable things they are always doing.

                                Do not escape reality : improve reality !
