I need closure!

There is a thing which I must know!! Leading question: Who saw the men's marathon in the Olympics where a lone nut tackled the front-runner?

Real question: Was that the same lone nut as the one who ran out onto the track in Silverstone during the British Grand Prix? He looks like the same lone nut... okay, at least he was dressed the same, it's a bit hard to look past the green kilt and all.

Anyone know? This is going to haunt me. I must find out!

a news article i saw yesterday said yes, but i'm too tired to look it up right now. i think it was on cnn.com, though.

The talking head on NBC later that day said that it was the same guy.
