I’m not sure what the rule should be in this case.
“Tyler Durden” is a pseudonym used by all posters at Zero Hedge. Pseudonyms, moms de plume, and moms de guerre aren’t usually quoted, in cases where the true identity is generally unknown. One writes of General Leclerc (nom de guerre of de Hauteclocque) of the Free French forces, not General “Leclerc”. Or in an extreme case, Mark Twain, not “ Mark Twain”, in spite of everyone knowing he was Sam Clemens.
It is rather confusing.
I agree about the quotation marks. My point is that a good number of FReepers don’t know Tyler Durden is a fake name. And the post to which I was replying left the suggestion that “he” is “singular.”
That’s “noms” not “moms” of course. %#$&$% auto spell check.
