Very interesting the user
l0gz on reddit...he was able to spot Satoshi's post only 9 minutes after it was posted (ummm...). This seems to indicate that he is the author of the post (hacking into Satoshi's account or not). This user likes to post in reddit about Anime, bitcoin, Unix,...his style sounds familiar to me (impeccably academic...as Satoshi's)...Let's have a look at some of his posts...what do you think?

Well think about it. If you were to announce yourself, you would just put a big target on your head. What's to stop someone from kidnapping your loved ones and demanding a payment in return for their safety? If you were to sell, you would crash the market and undermine people's confidence in your invention.
No doubt Satoshi kept his identity secret not for fear of law enforcement, but out of concern for his personal safety and protecting his fortune.
As a 20 year old, no. With the rate modern medicine is advancing, I think being old in 2063 won't be nearly as bad as it is now. I also want to stick around as long as possible to see all the cool things we invent.

A good store of value? Seriously? One could invest $100K into Bitcoin right now and have no idea if they'll be a millionaire in 6 months or wipe out half of their investment. Gold and silver are commodities, Bitcoin is a currency.
Keep in mind that even if you don't have a Facebook account, there's a high probability your "face" is still on Facebook, through photos your friends and family have uploaded to Facebook owned websites. Combine that with sufficient improvements in facial recognition software and we're not too far off Facebook crawling other social networks trying to put a name to the face.
Don't think about it. I've reached a point where I'll mix the two types of English together unless I make an conscious effort to avoid it. For example, I'll use "color" in the same sentence as "recognise".
These people aren't storming your house with the goal of killing you. When you escalate the situation with firearms, the cops are going to go into "shoot to kill" mode, which ends with you coming out of your house in a body bag. So yes, you should sit there and take it, if you care about your loved ones making it out of that situation alive.
