See, Baz, here's the thing...there have been instances on this and other boards where one person has set up multiple identities, so we all know that can and does happen sometimes.
You appeared shortly after Batman announced how much smarter he is than all the rest of us and his intent to prove that, so it is not surprising that some people believe you/Ida/Linda are in fact alter egos of his. The magnitude of your apparent savior-complex only bolsters this perception.
I mean no offense by this, I am just trying to explain to you why it is so hard for some of us to believe that you are real. To my knowledge no one on the board has actually met Choke, so the possibility does exist that he may also be another figment of Batman's imagination.
Again, I mean no offense to you or to Choke by saying this. It is simple reality that these situations have occurred in the past, and some are not convinced one is not happening now.
