Joseph, I spent about two years reading Ellen's posts yet I don't have a clue who she really was, where she lived, or what she did when not posting on SI. Posting under an alias, as Ellen did, is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it gives you a certain amount of freedom to do or say things you might not otherwise have done or said, or to perhaps reinvent yourself the way you wish you really were. But, on the other hand, it tends to keep others from treating you like a real person as opposed to a literary character. Heck, given that Joseph Krinsky is an alias, how can we really be sure "his" thoughts are really "your" thoughts? Some might argue that we never really know the real anyone anyhow, but the point is at least we know that whatever personna they put out to the world is not something they can erase by simply changing their name. It's this accountability that humanizes people (for better or worse). This is all a long-winded way to say that while we might all mourn the person who used the name Ellen here on SI, some obviously feel the literary Ellen had some shortcomings. - Jeff
