Does anybody have contact information for Oxyaena? I'd love to send her
a note and say hello. If I recall correctly, she posted with a false
email address, so if you know the real one, I'd prefer you email me
directly rather than post it here. My own spam filter should be quite
easy to evade, at least for anybody who was online in 2001.

Thanks!

I believe Oxyaena disappeared from TO long before Google abandoned us.
She may be smarter than all our remaining participants.

Hopefully Oxy is ok. It has been quite some time since I recall her
posting.

Oxy disappeared shortly after announcing her forthcoming marriage to
another queer transwoman (her words)and Glenn was exceptionally nasty
to her about the whole thing.

If you do track her down, please pass on my best wishes to her.

I presume you meant "Exceptionally nasty even by the exceptionally nasty
standards of Glenn."

(Glenn's posting history shows decades of slowly growing angrier and
more paranoid. I feel a little sorry for the guy, even though I know
it's at least partly self-inflicted.)

Towards the end of the 'old' TO, I began to take the notion that Glenn
might be a sock puppet for Nyikos. Despite some indicators, I didn't
have enough evidence to call it out and I also doubted whether Nyikos
actually was capable of being able to maintain such a level of
subterfuge for so long.

I believe Nyikos and Glenn were separate cranks, neither sock puppets of

Yeah, my bellyfeel is that they were separate people. Peter Nyikos was
already pretty spiteful; I don't know that it would have made sense to
create a sock puppet just to be abusive when he was already doing that
on main. Besides, Dr. Nyikos clearly wanted to be seen as formidably
intellectual, which very much ran counter to Glenn's style.

I suppose it's not impossible he rolled a sock puppet just so he could
post the occasional smugly lowbrow "Says you" and "Neener neener," but
if he had, I doubt he would have been able to resist praising himself
with it, or rushing to his own defense when challenged.

Nyikos was an excellent mathematician, albeit in a deadend branch of
mathematics. This excellence made him pretty unique as a crank, and I
stupidly interacted with him for a long time, not recognizing his crankhood.

He had a bunch of energy for someone his age and cocksureness. I think his
topology background made him think he was uniquely qualified to quarrel
with experts on embryology like PZ Myers back in the day. Or maybe he was
motivated by his views on abortion to engage in such topics.

Weren’t he and Glenn not on the same page about the directed panspermy
thing? Glenn could have been his gadfly alter, but they had such disparate
styles of communication. To Nyikos Glenn was one of the many renegade
underdogs he felt a need to protect.

The newsgroup would be far more active if Nyikos were still posting. I
assume he had the tenacity to have managed the migration from Google Groups
to an alternative posting method. His death coincided with the passing of
Google Groups. Did Glenn post using Google Groups? I can’t recall if he
continued to post after it discontinued. We lost Nando too. He’s not
present to see us survive the many COVID shots we received.

Nyikos did cause far more activity on the paleontology group too.

I don't think either Glenn or Nando (Mohammed Nyur Syamsu?) made it
post-Google. Neither shed much light on anything.

He had a certain energetic eloquence, too, I'll grant him that. He was
probably a pretty good professor, as long as you weren't visibly queer

It's weird how being smart and educated isn't an inoculation against
crankitude, and sometimes seems to make it worse. I guess some bright
folks never outgrow the need to be the smartest in the room.

Universities are ivory towers, not the real world. Take my word for it;
I was in it as student, grad student, postdoc and assistant professor
for about 15 years before I went out in the world.

I remember that once Glenn was a creationist, but he stopped arguing for
creationism and turned into a troll. (That's when he acquired several
entries in my killfile.) There was once instance where Peter went lower
than usual, and (even) Glenn called him out. I also recall seeing
anti-papist comments from Glenn. I don't have any doubt that Peter and
Glenn were different persons.

One "conspiracy theory" that did cross my mind was that his account had
been hacked by the FSB. The other is that he was an atheist false flag
trying to make Christianity look bad.

In my one and only discussion with Glenn he behaved trollishly on a
topic that had nothing to do with religion.

I think he just liked trolling.

But either, not enough to learn how to access this group without google,
or he's just not smart enough to do so.

The latter seems plausible to me. And explains the absence of Nando as
well.

Essentially correct. Glenn's posting behavior was very similar in
spirit to that of J***, in that he rarely provided cites that actually
backed up what he claimed, if at all, and almost always substituted
substance with pointless petty personal attacks.

Can't say about Glenn specifically. My impression is Nyikos refused
to use Usenet on principle, whatever that principle might have been.
It's not as if he hadn't been told how and what to do several times by
several posters, including yours truly.

I recall several instances where Nyikos jumped in the middle of
topics, without saying anything about their substance, just to give
Glenn moral support.

Does anybody have contact information for Oxyaena? I'd love to send her
a note and say hello. If I recall correctly, she posted with a false
email address, so if you know the real one, I'd prefer you email me
directly rather than post it here. My own spam filter should be quite
easy to evade, at least for anybody who was online in 2001.
Thanks!
Oxy disappeared shortly after announcing her forthcoming marriage to
another queer transwoman (her words)and Glenn was exceptionally nasty
to her about the whole thing.
I recall. That's part of why I wanted to touch base with her. (I'm also
a trans woman.)

If you do track her down, please pass on my best wishes to her.
I'll do that. Thank you very kindly.
