Kevin Brown Math Pages: Math Genius?

[g_the_b]

is perhaps Kevin Brown a new Nicolas Bourbaky?

There is some prior discussion on PF about Kevin Brown:

As to being Bourbaki, you have to determine if Brown is a real person. If so then he can't be Bourbaki (pseudonym for a group of mathematicians publishing anonymously using Bourbaki's name and image). Bourbaki existed in real life however he was no mathematician but instead a government official in Napoleon's time.

and the real Bourbaki:

With respect to Kevin Brown, he may be an alias for Fred Olson:

Although from other readings I found, he may want to remain anonymous and that should be respected.

When did Bourbaki stop writing books? When they realized that Serge Lang was a single person.
