This is a bit of a weird question I guess... Who is iLemming on Hacker News? For ages, I assumed it was Colin @cfleming but I just stumbled across a thread where iLemming was discussing something with lemming in a thread and that made it clear that Colin is lemming...

Haha. Yes, the first time when I saw it, I thought: "Did I just sleep-posted a comment reply to myself?" I'm not sure who got their HN handle first, me or Colin. I learned writing in cursive as a kid - long before Cursive saw a first commit. What a shocking surprise it was to me, when I moved to the States. Turns out, only doctor prescriptions and president's signature gets written that way - everything else has to be in print.

@cfleming sorry if you ever get threats for my orange-site Karen behavior. You, know, sometimes I just can't resist. Some people (me for example) act stupid there.
