From this weekend's NY Times Magazine comes this (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/03/magazine/03trolls-t.html) feature.

I understand a bit more now about encounters I've had.

Then again - much of the article itself could be in the realm of fantasy.

I just finished reading this. I am intrigued by their abilities and tenacity. I wonder if we see a new m.o., a ridley Scott - ish existence among those who live amnonymously or monomonickered. It is both cowardly and gutsy to exist like that. I recomend the story as a cautionary tale.

You mean "nothing is as it seems." I can hear the Twilight Zone music.
