  1. Well, I think it was a hoax, and an obvious one at that: The hoaxer was Ken Webster himself and if you’ll notice, he was never denied access to the various attempts of communication, but managed to play the role of the puzzled schoolteacher who (in Cheshire county, where else) had his boring life invigorated by a nice mystery, thus also perhaps hoping to save the fading relationship with his girlfriend, who stayed with him while he was renovating the old cottage with little enthusiasm and slow progress.  I hold that as Ken was never out of the loop and couldn’t be denied access to his borrowed work computer, all he had to do was a little programming to ensure time-delayed creation of the interesting files.  If you want more than just the more likely explanation from me, the debunking should simply focus on Ken’s general activities before, during and after the event.  I think a pattern will soon emerge to show him up. I’ve read a fair bit of articles on this subject, and it’s actually rather puzzling how everybody seem to forget to evaluate the activities of the most central person, Ken Webster himself! I think many like me realized that he was the loose cannon, but chose not to kill the thrill by focusing on him.

  3.  @friskeysunset  Did she even deduce this?

  4.  @HobbesJunior  Yes, that is a problem, but Ken Webster might have had friends who knew about the attempts to prove the theorem, and one or more of those might have ventured estimates how far along the progress was, enabling Ken to guess the year with some confidence…
