Seriously... or is he the one "holy grail" of 914 club guys to finally get to meet?
I have see no photo evidence that he actually exists, with the exception of some old grainy photo involving spandex and Brian Setzer.
There were also some blurry photos he once posted with him partially reflected in the window of his 914. I remember that there was a building in the background. We were teasing him about being let out of the psych ward...
Wait... I found it...

No, you spoke to what you thought was Miles, he really doesnt exist, he is a bot like in IRC. Created by the Matrix to tease and mock you. That is all it is, just a bot!!!

Miles is not a real person. he is a computer program that managed to escape for the IBM Labs during a lapse in security.
He roams the internet attaching himself to PHP.exe and hogging system resources eventually crashing the server.

3. Digital camera memory will mysteriously erase itself
4. I will get lost and end up in the backwoods of Georgia (hey... I might meet Jake!)
5. Rare earthquake will swallow up 10 miles of I-95 with me in it!

I have seen Miles. During a session with Madam Sensamia, I was transported via a Comet dressed in a purple robe to a place in a far off galaxy. Upon my arrival, I stood on a white sand beach, with a Galaxie parked nearby, and was approached by brilliant light, which later turned out to be the only working light on his teener, as the blue acrid smoke cleared, the sea was calm and reflected the cosmos as a faint chant was heard from the bushes...aroooooom....aroooom....arooom....damnit start.....arooooom....aroooom, while lighting a Cheech and Chong special, a puff of purple haze blew thru my brain washing the image in my mind in a whirlwind of cosmic dust I was born again a star child until I ran into the monolith and it started piercing my ears with a screech and saw a bone fly high in the air, tumbling thru the empty blackness, I was eating breakfast in the Howard Johnson's Starlight room, while the shroooms climbed off my plate and a pen floated in the air waiting for me to sign the contract for a new teener that was L69BE paisley and my black patent leather shoes reflected Miles's Fro as I shot a picture with my Oralrympic Accco Focus Camera and...........................

7. Aliens will abduct me and transport me to Mars
8. I will meet Miles and he will spontaneously combust

One thing I can say about Miles, He has written nice words and shown empathy in PMs to me, and I am sure to Qarl also.
I hope he's real, not memorex.

Miles is really rich and famous. After the show ended he couldn't step out of character, thus the reason for the mystery.

Miles is quirky, always entertaining, and above all else, a great friend (especially in the sandbox). He may not always make sense, but his heart's in the right place. I can't wait for the day I get to meet him!

I have actually met Miles several times. He's kind of a strange cat. Every time we have run in to each other he seems to find me. I'll never forget the first time. I woke up in the middle of the night and that goofy bastard was standing beside my bed just looking at me. Next thing I know I am waking up again and he's gone. This has happend 4-5 times over the last few years, and he has yet to actually say anything. He always just stands there looking at me. Seems like a nice guy just kinda weird. I think he may be shy because of his skin disorder,(sort of a grey elephant like skin)maybe that's why he doesn't go out in public much.Anyway feel safe meeting him. Gotta go now my butt hurts, he must have stopped by again last night and I missed him.If I crap another metallic gift I'll know it was him!
