    Sock Puppets are posts from one and the same person but posted under two user names.
    By registering twice using two different e-mail addresses and two different user names it is possible to create a situation whereby one person can post an inflammatory message and the same person responds to that message using a different user name.
    In this way controversy is generated and others are drawn into the 'discussion'
    It looks to me as if we have a couple of 'sock puppets' on this site at present.
