So you’ve been lying all along that you have him and all his subthreads blocked. He was right about you!

I thought about her too. Is still unclear. We will find out.

I whipped up a little program that groups posters based on
their writing style.
Generally speaking, the more text and posts we've got from someone,
the more accurate this bad boy gets. Sometimes you'll find a bunch
of usernames that are obviously the same person. It's a no-brainer
when two names are practically twins or when it's common knowledge
that they belong to the same dude.
But here's the kicker - you might get a couple of folks with
writing styles that are two peas in a pod, even though they're
about as likely to be the same person as the Dodgers and the
Giants sharing a clubhouse.
So you can't just go around saying my method is the be-all and
end-all for proving two posters are one and the same. It's more
like a breadcrumb trail that someone with half a brain needs to
follow, considering all the info out there.
Now that we've got that out of the way, I can tell you that
my program didn't find any writing style that stuck out like a
sore thumb compared to Marion's. But don't put all your eggs in
one basket - we don't have a ton of text from this sender yet.
To avoid barking up the wrong tree, I'm zeroing in on cases where
it's already pretty obvious we're dealing with the same person,
either because their usernames are like two drops of water or because
people are already chewing the fat about it.
(My program, though, didn't give two hoots about how similar
usernames might be - it just zeroed in on the meat and potatoes of
each post. I'm the one who then cherry-picked similar names for this
write-up, just to avoid stirring up any unnecessary drama. Wouldn't
want to set off a wildfire of speculation, if you catch my drift.)
So, without further ado, here are some of the writing style
similarities I dug up when looking at "comp.mobile.android":
'Arlen Holder' ~ 'arlen holder'
'Arlen Holder' ~ 'Arlen G. Holder'
'arlen holder' ~ 'Arlen G. Holder'
'Arlen _G_ Holder' ~ 'Arlen G. Holder'
'Arlen_Holder' ~ 'Arlen Holder'
'arlen michael holder' ~ 'Arlen Holder'
'micky' ~ 'Micky'
'Carlos E.R.' ~ 'Carlos E. R.'
'John B.' ~ 'John B. Slocomb'
'Harry Newton' ~ 'harry newton'
'Horace Algiers' ~ 'Horace Algier'

At least you’ve admitted publicly your enjoyment of bantering with Arlen. Lorenz has put up high and mighty fake fronts all this time and finally let it slip out that he’s just a liar and really a secret admirer of Arlen.
And what have you been right about? I’ve only had an issue with Arlen once and we worked it out. He contributes useful information and causes people
to think about their sacred cow narratives.
The difference between your interactions and my interactions with him is
that he and I can disagree respectfully without hurling insults at each other.

Because you cave on your positions before he starts insulting you, quisling. >>
Really? That’s not the way I remember it when I confronted him about using my identity.
