His post _did_ have his real name in it: Christian Holtje.
Perhaps your news reader didn't display the proper identity field.
(I think there was a similar discussion several months ago.  The name
is hidded in the x-reallife-name field or something like that.  NNTP viewers
won't always display it, but it is apparent from the web.)  I have
now given up on switching my identity back and forth between here, my standard
email, and Usenet, so now I get several SPAMs a week from there. :(

PS I think his name is a Dr Who reference, not Abbott and Costello.
