Too many coincidences. I didn't know about Spain, but I knew that he
grew up in the US. New England and Burlington don't set off any alarms.
He always went by "Steve" on this group, but authors often use their
full names when they publish. Japan was mentioned. I used to love his
posts about teaching English at a girl's school in Japan. And then they
moved to Thailand, where he concentrated on photography.

Even the braggart quote sounded just like him:

"Let's just say that was their first and only attempt", regarding
several older kids who tried to steal his lunch when he was 13.
