I used to collect coins and I'd often post to the rec.collecting.coins usenet group. I quickly learned that if you said anything bad about Hager that he or his wife would send emails threatening a lawsuit. Here's a link that details the lawsuit:

His lawsuit actually described a usenet group as a "collecting club" sanctioned by the ANA! HILARIOUS!!!....I'm not sure how I avoided being named...I guess I was just lucky.
