I'm sure Mick Travis doesn't really believe you work for MI6 and doesn't really doubt that your name is indeed 'Brooks'. I'm sure the point he's making is the following. He stated that he is a doctor, and you replied that there's no reason to believe he is without his providing evidence. By that logic, then, anyone can assert anything about anyone else. For example, you have provided no evidence that 'Brooks' relates to your real identity (e.g. birth certificate), and you have provided no evidence that you're a civilian (rather than a spook). You did the same with me. I said I was reading a certain book and you basically claimed I wasn't (because I provided no evidence of doing so). The point is: you are making claims about people (Travis is not a doctor, Rippon is not reading what he claims he is) based on nothing but your own personal hunches about them. That is exactly the (professed) basis upon which the output of 'conspiracy theorists' is dismissed - statements about the world based on mere hunches rather than evidence. Thus, you are exactly what you claim to hate - a conspiracy theorist. But you didn't see that slightly subtle point Mick was making - presumably because it was slightly subtle. So, yes, Mick is indeed more than a match for you.
