Sometimes the email address is one of the best ways to realize that someone is
not "real."

I have no problem with people using a psuedonym, but they should be permitted
only one name to participate under.   When they proffer their identification
to answer a challenge, that information should be held confidential,and only
used to verify that no further identifications are made using the same real
name identified.
