But since you are an Admin then you can unblock yourself. Just mossy on over to http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Ipblocklist and unblock your IP.
The problem is that I do not want to unblock Michael, who, though I have not been following it in great detail, it appears really should be blocked.

Michael is blocked under his latest pseudonym, NO-FX -- unblocking your IP address will not change this (we can block both by IP and by nickname). Besides, since the IP address is dynamic, it is unlikely that whatever vandal originally used it will get it again soon.

The last few days, Michael is editing without being logged in. The IP's he uses get blocked by some sysops.
AOL is forcing its customers to use proxies. We do not see the dynamic IP of Michael, we see the IP's of the proxies he is using (and others are using, too).

Aha! This is very annoying. All the more reason to implement an auto expiry for IP blocks. Right after the feature freeze ..
