I already did... MessageIndex.template.php and Display.template.php if he copied either of those from the default 2.0 RC4 or RC5 theme. Trouble is, removing those lines breaks the functionality in them so you will have to remove it ONLY from your files, not from the theme as a whole.
Or, find yourself increasingly shut out from mods until you upgrade...
