Juvenile Jackass Watch: The Case of IP Address 12.218.204.2…

….which is either in South Dakota or the Hilton in Middletown, NJ (depending on which look-up service one uses), and submitted a false post to the jobs thread under the name "Dawn Keebals," which the juvenile jackasses who find cyberspace their natural habitat think is funny (google it to find out why). The fake Keebals was a Rutgers PhD working in metaphysics hired by NYU. Ha-ha. Fame and glory (or anonymity, if you prefer) to the first person who can identify the jackass via the IP address: 12.218.204.2. We'll post the exciting news here.

UPDATE: The consensus from some web-savvy readers is that the first juvenile jackass posted from the Hilton at the Central APA in Chicago. And he's now been joined by a second jackass at IP address 173.254.216.68. Alas, I'll now have to ban both. Thanks to both jackasses for wasting my time.
