Abusive commenter: found
The latest comment I received on the current look-and-feel is nothing if not offensive. I had a strong inkling as to who had written it, someone who I would strangely classify as a friend (strange, given the comment), an ex-client indeed.
He denied the comment by IM ("i didn’t comment…"), so I investigated further. I found the source IP address and ran it through GeoBytes’ IP locator. It found that it came from America, New York, Brooklyn. It estimated that it might be from Ocean Avenue, a mere 2.1 miles from the workplace of the person who formed my original inkling.
The chances of two randomly chosen American points being within 2.1 miles of one another is around 0.00025% (1 in 400,000). Too much of a coincidence in my book.

How did you guess their identity from that tiny snippet of rude?
Do you either have zero ememies or does no one usually swear around you?
Not sure. I think it was largely the “BLOG Hater” tag…
Hey, is it whom I think it is?
The very same…
