Reading this, quite interesting:

Just read it. Seems really strange that all these emails would "leak" and Craig would be emailing people with the Satoshi email.

I know we have developed the "myth of Satoshi" and Craig seems to shatter that, but it is not based on nothing. Satoshi seemed to be a very private person and very good at covering his tracks. I doubt he would be emailing his lawyer and others with an email that can link him to his pseudonym...just seems sloppy.

The reason a person like Nick Szabo makes more sense as Satoshi is that he acts the way we would expect Satoshi to act.

I don't know. I always pictured Satoshi a bit like this:

He died broke and in squalor, after suffering from infected bedsores. His body was found decomposing and surrounded by empty alcohol bottles and a loaded handgun. Bloody feces was tracked along the floor, and a bullet hole was found in his mattress, though no spent shell casings were found on the scene.
