why would they spend SO much time on it, though? this must have taken quite a lot of time to write and follow up. people who are super successful tend to be very busy with their own work and, more fundamentally, very ego-driven, racking up achievements. this time-consuming endeavor gave them no personal benefit. whoever it is, it was someone with time on their hands, and with a strong motivation to spend their precious free time on this anonymous endeavor. is caring about the truth enough motivation for most highly successful people to devote a week of their precious time to something that doesn't even give them any reputational benefit?
maybe you're right. i think my more cynical view of successful people is more likely to be borne out. time will tell.
Some of us just like to solve puzzles and sleuth out crimes. It�s a gas to uncover this kind of thing. I did it once early in my career. You make enemies, but it�s still fun.
No you didn't.
