There was also come commentary about Aircraft Spruce substituting
"mild steel" sheet in place of 4130 steel sheet, and that we were
therefore "unscrupulous" people. Aircraft Spruce has an
outstanding reputation for quality products over the past 40 years, and
to suggest that we would intentionally substitute sub-standard material
is insulting.

Sounds like such a claim could qualify for full-on libel (given the
potential for harming the business if potential customers were to
believe such a claim).

Let the sonofabitch sue for libel. I dare him to. I don't hurt his
reputation; he does. And if any of the angry Irwin toadies I have brought
out of the woodwork are to be believed I have HELPED Irwin's reputation.

If you want to know what so many people have said about Jim Irwin and
Aircraft Spruce, just do a Google Groups advanced search with the term,
"aircraft spruce." No offense to you, but that should get your case
rested, not to mention that truth is a defense.

Matter of fact, a few of the great volumes of complaints ought to be
published here, just to give an idea of the angry ridicule of Irwin's decade
of dark history in "customer service."

I never would have believed there were such torrents of hateful invective
against one man if I hadn't gone and looked just now. Take a look, if you
don't believe me. Irwin's fuXXed people from coast to coast and across the
pond. So don't believe a word I have said if you don't want to; the record
still damns him to customer relationships only with buffoons and masochists.
