I tend to agree with you @perceptualflaws - they love to mock us. I find it very interesting that he chose that name at the age of 16. Maybe it was chosen for him? It's hard to know. I haven't read Underground yet but I might to see if I pick up any clues.
Thanks for commenting and resteeming - I really appreciate it!
@steemtruth yes they certainly do. Like you say it's difficult to know for sure, although I can remember being fairly cocky at 16.
No problem my friend, credit where it's due, I'm really looking forward to part 3!
