Calling Jack Dorsey the real Satoshi is like calling Forrest Gump the real Einstein. It really does not take a very smart person to poke holes in this little theory. I remember 2 years ago, part of HN was dead-to-rights convinced Elon wrote the Bitcoin source code because he claimed to know C++. People will find whatever evidence they can to support these largest-common-denominator theories.

The theory is making rounds, discussing tech-related news is what this site is about. I don't subscribe to that theory either, much of the evidence seems pretty far-fetched (father's birthday) to counterindicative (sailing trip).
