It may interest those following this discussion to learn that VN appears
on the Shakespeare-Oxford Society's website's "Honor Role of Skeptics",
in a special category of his own, segregated from the true doubters. The
entry on VN includes a quote from the "His name is protean" passage in
BS.

The "Honor Role of Skeptics" can be found at
