In this thread we identify sock puppets, alter egos, etc

I thought the same thing Tippie did - since the thread title is about identifying sock puppets, I thought it was going to be, well, identifying them.

So, here's a question: If a poster quits using one name and reregisters with another, is that person a sock puppet? (I'm not talking about the people who ask John to change their screen names.) Just trying to make sure I use the proper terms.

Back on topic - I'm curious how Sheetcake got started. I don't need to know who (s)he is, but I'd love to know the backstory.
