Bah!  It's common knowledge in the intelligence community that
the "Brian Hook" persona is a totally invented character used 
to get a certain sector of the programming community to solve
government problems.  Unfortunately, "Brian"'s profile has 
become so elaborated by overenthusiastic agents (in a desire to
capture the attention and assistance of programmers) that we
now require a staff of writers, fact-checkers, continuity
experts, and licensing lawyers (for when the persona becomes
corporate, and offers publicly-traded shares on the stock
market; ticker: 'HOOK').  We have a guy who is just in charge
of keeping track of the things that "Brian" has asked and 
said in past written correspondence.  A cursory analysis of 
"Brian's" statements in various newsgroups would reveal to 
anyone that the concentration of apparent intelligence is 
impossibly superhuman, despite careful efforts of the writers
and research team to introduce little quips and claims of doubt
in the narrative to throw suspicion away from what would otherwise
be recognized as the product of a group-mind or a staggering IQ.
A department is exploring possible franchise products, like
action figures, music CD's, animated series, T-shirts,
candy, cereal, graphic novels, animatronics, and, yes,
even a "Brian Hook" video game.

Amazingly, it turns out that almost everyone else in the
places where the "Brian" persona frequents are fictitious
personas invented by other deep-cover intelligence branches.
So you, reader, may be the only real person in this forum.
We haven't yet narrowed down who you are yet, but it's only
a matter of time before the real human is identified...the
one actual computer programmer, with all the answers.
YOU ARE THE ONE!  STAY WHERE YOU ARE.

(By the way, if "Brian" should happen to "respond" to these
claims, be assured that it's all part of the plan.  You are
so wrapped up in the illusion that you won't believe the 
truth even when it is fully disclosed.)
