I wasn't aware of that until this thread came up - I presumed that he =
was buying up from the market and reselling at profit. He is Canadian - =

say the complete opposite if you were to ask him.
>He is morally reprehensible and has questionable selling practices. He =
IS adept, however, at hiding his true colors.

I guess a web page outlining his crimes against Newtondom could be put =
together, but it would have to be hosted on an ISP that wouldn't pull it =
