In fact Essjay is still lying. The "facts" on Essjay user page indicate that he, a "24 year old", has an 12 year long career of working as a paralegal, studying at college, working on wikipedia etc. Meaning he left high school at 12 years old. But it's Jimbo Wales who should be resigning. Jimbo was fully aware of Essjay misdemeanors, long before now. In fact Essjay is still lying.
