Two of the people MNH has exchanged barbs with -- RK & Adam -- haven't been models of restraint themselves, making a few attacks on MNH themselves. His response to Teresa Knox does appear unjustified, though, & I would like better proof that he was the person acting from those IP addresses.
I would like it as well. It is obvious to me personally that the person from those IP addresses is indeed MNH, as he seemlessly edits those articles ([[Alternative medicine]]) with MNH, and is only interrested in those pages. Also, 12.77.5.190 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=...) gave in his _very first_ edit summary: "Hello, RK. Have you always suffered from mental illness and perceptual problems?" This could hardly be a new contributor.
Of course the easiest way to get proof would be for a devel to check MNH's IP when editing around that time. I'm not sure what wikipedia's privacy policy is in regards to revealing IP addresses of contributors.
