Geoff knowingly took intellectual property that wasn't his. There is still intellectual property on his website that he shouldn't be using. He only removed my photo because I caught him in the act.
I did not post any willful misrepresentation of MD products. First of all, you would have to prove motive (an ability which you and Wellfed seem to stake authority). Second, the only possible misrepresentation I made was with the material composition of the wall cover. I still don't know for sure that it isn't some plastic polymer. However, I gave Wellfed the benefit of the doubt and promptly edited my allegedly incorrect "plastic" assertion because Wellfed claims the outlet is not made of plastic (though he failed to correct me on what it is made of).
Edit:
For the sake of accurate representation, I did a little research into the MD outlet covers. Here's a thread of someone who reviewed the product: http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.mpl?forum=tweaks&n=137157&highlight=tru&r=&session=
It's apparently made of ceramic and produced in China by a New Jersey company named Amertac. These products are distributed Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Target, et al.

And you know it was *knowingly* a violation, how, exactly? "First of all, you would have to prove motive" (I quote).

Then: "It's apparently made of ceramic and produced in China by a New Jersey company named Amertac. These products are distributed Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Target, et al." Note the fudge word "apparently". Note too the pronoun shift from "it" (the MD plate) to "these", the general products of that apparent company. Was that willful? Knowing? Hmmm?

  I didn't say it was knowingly a violation. I said Geoff knowingly took a photo that he knew was not his.
  
  I'm not sure what you're getting at with your grammar nitpicking. "It" to "these" suggests nothing insidious to me, but maybe you're reading something into it that I'm not (and surely did not intend). I'm also not sure why you consider "apparently" a "fudge word." Having seen the back engraved logo of the Tru-Tone photos provided in the linked review, it is apparent who manufactured Tru-Tone.
  
  This conversation is getting too crazy for me.
Willfull, or not, geoffkait and Len_ are a couple of bad dudes... - Wellfed 12:31:25 07/24/07 (0)
