What to do when I figure out a board writer's identity?

I have figured out the identity of 3 board writers so far. I am way more excited than I should be. What should I do now that I have this powerful knowledge?

You should probably blackmail them for large sums of money.

Tragically, I don't know any writer who has large sums of money. Or who cares enough to be blackmailed.

Ah, excellent point, Dragon Lady. Well, you could always shoot for something smaller. Maybe blackmail them for a frozen yogurt? Mmmmmmm... frozen yogurt.

I usually just quietly follow their blogs and feel proud that I have such intimate knowledge of these people's lives.
Sometimes I also stalk them on Facebook.

I usually befriend them in real life.

One person sent me a message on Facebook and gave me a detailed description of how he found me out (it was super easy, apparently). It was a little creepy at first, but interesting nonetheless.....

I just quietly keep the knowledge to myself. Most all the ones I know are from meeting them in real life, but I don't even facebook-stalk those ones. Weird. Apparently I don't quite qualify for true "boardie" status.

I don't think it counts as facebook stalking if you add them AFTER you've met them.
DL, let's talk about a day and Bob and I will come over and make you chiles rellenos.

I never said a thing about adding anyone on Facebook.
I have met some in real life, but most of them I already recognized. Shoot, I needed a life back then.
(Not anymore, clearly. I have a writing-style crush on one of the writers and I haven't even bothered to put forth the effort to see if I can figure out who this person is. That's how little I care now!)

there was a board question that answered this very question! It has some sort of joke answer. I doubt any of the current writers would get it though.
Also, I know I made some slips and I am probably pretty easy to find OH WELL LIFE GOES ON RIGHT

Whistler, I've given up trying. Luckily I'm not friends with many current writers, but if a Boardie gets you guys because of me... Oops?
