(2) Guido Menzio's Facebook has zero content as of now (1 pm EDT, Sunday, May 8). Apparently he deleted himself. Neither Bing nor Yahoo kept a cache of anything in his Facebook -- in fact, his Facebook account does not show up in either.
(a) Google even deleted the cache of the following posting, whose date is unknown. A couple of persons in the whole world got hold it, though, before the evaporation -- that is where I copied it.

"Unbelievable…

Flight from Philly to Syracuse goes out on the tarmac, ready to take off. The passenger sitting next to me calls the stewardess, passes her a note. The stewardess comes back asks her if she is comfortable taking off, or she is too sick. We wait more. We go back to the gate. The passenger exits. We wait more. The pilot comes to me and asks me out of the plane. There I am met by some FBI looking man-in-black. They ask me about my neighbor. I tell them I noticed nothing strange. They tell me she thought I was a terrorist because I was writing strange things on a pad of paper. I laugh. I bring them back to the plane. I showed them my math.

It's a bit funny. It’s a bit worrisome. The lady just looked at me, looked at my writing of mysterious formulae, and concluded I was up to no good. Because of that an entire flight was delayed by 1.5 hours.
Trump's America is already here. It’s not yet in power though. Personally, I will fight back.

(b) A newspaper says he has olive skin (meaning darkish). See (3). But some other people see him as white, at least whitish. The following is his own words, in Google CACHE of his Facebook page.

(A) Sean Lennon

(full name: Sean Tarō Ono Lennon 小野 太郎; 1975- )
(B) A clean-shaven Sean Lennon does look like Guido Menzio, in my eyes anyway. See
