Any RobotRollCall fans here?

Someone asked "Is there a limit to the amount of energy that can be in one place at one time?" a couple days ago on /r/askscience, and RobotRollCall popped up with this response. It's not unusually lucid for him, poke around, there's more gems. I don't know enough physics to judge the accuracy, but my bs meter isn't just not going off, it's looking at me with this "this one's a keeper" look on its face.

This guy certainly knows what he's talking about, and he talks about it in an awesome way.

Judging from this one post I'd say he is a particle physicist, since it looks like he knows really much about particles, but apparently he doesn't have much to do with relativity - he missed one thing implied by relativity, namely that if you put enough energy in a small enough volume, you'll get a black hole.

Yeah. Here's his history page if you want to deepen the puzzle and find more awesomeness. People have been wondering who the hell he is for a while. I see he denied being Tyson a few months ago. I believe him because the guy's just too straight up. Whoever he is, I figure he'll tell what he wants to tell. I'm just gonna enjoy reading his stuff. I don't think he didn't know the black hole consequence, hell, I knew that one, I have that reply as exactly the extemporaneous riff it looks like. I think he just didn't bother fleshing out the two words he devoted to answering the question ("Not really.") because it's actually kinda boring, certainly by comparison.

True, his other posts show that he (or she, as one of the posts - response "guess again" to the words "kind Sir" - suggests) knows a lot about that, too. I guess he (or she) is simply a physicist who likes to explain things.
