Someone pointed me to Nick Allen's blog on Indigo.
 
I'm finding it hard to believe that one human is able to produce all of that content.
 
One hint that there may not be a human called "Nicholas Allen" is that the blog handle is drnick, which is eerily reminiscent of Dr. GUI, another pseudonym that had multiple humans and column-robots producing content for over a decade.

...or it's a reference to the Dr. Nick character on The Simpsons. Catch Phrase: "Hi, everybody!"

I'd like to correct one thing about Dr. Gui. There were two people in the history of that column who handled the 'voicing duties' for the good Doctor. The owner of the column collaborated with Microsoft's PSS and then re-wrote the responses to have a consistent voice.

I am an universiy student working on a research on GXA. I know you have written an article callled "Understand GXA", but the article has been removed from the msdn web site for some reason. I believe that is the best material for using on research because of the reputation and credibility. In addition, I have seen it is recommended by many articles. I wounder if you still have a copy of that article and can you please send it to me?

My email address is ewleu1@student.monash.edu.au

Sorry for distributing you. Any help is appreciated.

I'm another real Nick Allen. I just ran a Google search on our name because I've been getting email for another Nicholas Allen, and I was curious how many of us are out there. Seems like there are a whole bunch of us in the UK. I'm in California. If we all do meet for tea, it would be one the only time I wouldn't have trouble remembering everyone's name.
