That was a problem.  If you follow advice not originating from this list,
then you are better off taking your questions to that site rather than
this list when things don't work.  That site has persistently been known
for giving bad advice, but until people point it out to the owners of that
site, this list seems to be stuck with more than our fair share of
resolving the bad advice from that site.
