Who Is Benjamin Stove?

Starting in early January, Tucker Darby blogs a story of a strange painting, and the people and events surrounding it. This ARG(?) seems to be original and simple, surrounding one object as of yet. Darby is in the dark as much as we (the players) are, and posts on the forum even spur Darby to take action.The site is gaining fast popularity, by putting up ads on other websites. I first heard about it, through the normal way, the unforums. A new wikipedia page has been started as well, providing multiple sources of info on WIBS.
