Chris asked a year or two back whether anyone had any real life example as an excuse for paranoia. I had a run in with a person on a newsgroup who proceeded to deliberately post dozens of offensive and vulgar posts using an email address about one letter different from mine. I was exceedingly glad that this particular operator is not known to take his campaigns into the real world.
So to my mind, sad as it may be, keeping your internet identity separate from your real life identity is a sensible precaution.
