I'm pretty sure this man is a serial killer

This looks like a typical personal page for a CS graduate student…

…until you find this.

Wait what?

Is there some hidden message in that story? WTF did I just read?

How do you come up with these things? Based on the dude’s personal page, he hasn’t updated since 1998.

And his wife’s web page is no longer working. What if he used his boat to throw away his wife’s body somewhere. Serial killers with PhD degrees are not easy to catch.

It also looks like he took his wife’s last name as his middle name. AND he has a WikiPedia page:

I think it might be for a homework problem involving breaking up strings.
