The second one is already handled on the forum.  He claims to not be using 
any AGA photos, and this does appear to be true.  So we're out of the 
picture.  He's not going to change his mind, but both Scott and I have 
clearly posted that we think it's wrong.  About the only other thing we 
could do is delete the link off the forum, if it's deemed appropriate.
