I don't think its appropriate for AGA to be involved with (or express an
opinion about) a defamation lawsuit even though the lawsuit is
peripherally involved with freedom of expression regarding plants.

I don't like the idea of people using the APD to publicly criticize
vendors. IMHO, the APD is not the right place for griping or consumer
advocacy. OTOH, I think its heavy handed and very bad corporate policy
to respond to criticism with a lawsuit. Shame on you guys!
