[Madeleine Maudlin]

It would be pathologickly insane to attempt to deceive literature experts
by acting like two different characters.  Enki himself could not do so,
even acting like Enlil.

This is my only proof that obviously I am not Madeleine: I am not
pathologickly insane.  Although her name does look fake.

But you have reminded me of something that would be appropriate if your
icky sockpuppet insinuation were true:

"Your Honor, you are too clever for us *naughty* people."

If me and Madeleine sound alike to you, well, sexist.
