seems like you don`t know what you`re talking about.
in this case, its best that you don`t say anything, instead of giving bad advice.
Also;
A perfectly straight neck, with level frets. Does not require any relief. Although a little relief can make small changes that occur with changes in humidity and what have you less problematic, as well as may benifit a heavy handed picker.

I never said that he was wrong. in fact, the only thing that made me write this was the way he wrote " truss rod adjustment is NOT going to stop buzzing on ANY frets closer to the body"
I do agree that neck angle MIGHT be the problem, and this he said right "then you neck angle MAY be the problem." but there are so many other variables that could lead to this particular problem, and yes, one of them could be the neck angle.
and I really think that the strings needs some very small space to vibrate. and this I`m sure you know rich, many classical builders plane the end of the fb on the bass side for this reason. and having no truss rod to adjust relief this is the way to go. on a electric I always adjust the neck straight and then loosen the truss rod a just a bit until there`s a little relief. and I mean, a little. to me, having a little relief can help setting the action lower. and this is how I`ve been setting up guitars for the last 5 years, and works fine for me.
I never meant to be so harsh on the guy, but he should watch out for the way he says things. he never touched the guitar, he never looked at the guitar, so at least he should be using words such as maybe, might, could be, and etc.
