Esker Melchior

Esker Melchior is the Troll for a Day pseudonym used by a poster on the Yahoo! Finance message board for SCO Group.

Articles posted under this name are satirical in nature. They tend to repeat pro-SCOX comments and sentiments but use ridiculously poor spelling, grammar and punctuation to make the point that the logic behind some pro-SCOX arguments is also ridiculously poor. Often Esker is confused with George W. Bush or Darl McBride. Esker is not the Clicktard.

The articles weave in recent events and comments in way that makes them hard to dismiss as mere noise, robotically generated text, or Santorum pro-gay speeches.

Esker Melchior's comments are amusing enough that they often receive a dozen or more "recommendations" from the nerds who have nothing better to do than read a finance board of a stock they don't own.
