    Ah, okay. You just see Aurich in every other article. He’s like the head man. No idea what his real name is. The name Ken Fisher isn’t unknown to me, but neither is it familiar.

    I guess I could have looked at Wikipedia. I guess I never really cared that much to read up on it. I’ve just been reading them off and on for, I don’t even remember how long. Even had an account once.
