Clearly this was his own website, since it's usually unethical to "suck 
down" someone else's.  And my message specifically said "To archive 
*your* website..."  As to the implied question of why, since he 
presumably has the original sources, I can only relate my own 
experience.  I generate mine by a python program, but over time obsolete 
files are left behind.  Additionally, an overzealous SEO person 
hand-edited my files.  And finally, I reinstalled my system from scratch 
a couple of months ago.  So in order to see exactly what's out there, I 
used rsync, about two weeks ago.
