I'm pretty sure Wheat isn't Will. But it would be interesting to find out who he is.

I searched all of his posts from the time he started posting here, and I'm pretty certain he isn't Will. His writing style is also nothing like Will's.

Who knows?

I do know that it was Will who introduced Wheat to the mopologetic powers that be as a believer who was nonetheless "sympathetic" to the critics (boy, was he ever wrong about that). The reason I thought Wheat was Will was that at least once, Will posted a comment on my blog using Wheat's IP address, which is odd. But then again, I'm just paranoid.

I thought something had happened like Wheat posted something here that was emailed to someone on another board by Will?

I have a vague recollection of that but don't remember specifics.

Might they have the same server? Wheat posted on the same threads that Will did, mainly Book of Abraham threads, and sometimes close together. That would seem odd to me, but then.....who knows?

Why would someone in southern Utah use a public education server in West Virginia?

The uncanny resemblance I find with Wheat/Will is some of the terminology. But I can't explain why they posted on the same threads, unless Will created this sockpuppet for back up.

"Ghost of Rockwell" definitely sounded like Will.

In the end it doesn't really matter. Asshattery by any other name is still asshattery.
