Well, he was mostly dead for awhile.  I think that offsets everything

OBUA:  ummm... many people believe S. Morgenstern to be an actual writer
and the author of "The Princess Bride."  Even when confronted with proof
that it was an original work by William Goldman they still believe some
guy named Morgenstern wrote it.  Elaborate hoax by Goldman or cliomantic
intervention?
