I think it's a fair bet that Satoshi is either dead, insane, or the government. Finney checks the most likely one.

The government is a new (but fun) one for me! What's the theory there?

It's a mechanism by which the CIA(or others!) could pay operatives covertly.

On this website there are single spaces following periods.

When HTML is rendered, multiple normal white space characters collapse into one, e.g. if you write "<p>Hello it's me</p>" it will be displayed in a browser as "Hello it's me". The source code tells the whole truth.
