Heat Rocks

Ok, I was just on a site on 'how to care for-' and they had bp's, bd's, and some other snakes and lizards. On the site he said not to use heat rocks for lizards, their for SNAKES ONLY. I KNOW their not for snakes- Ive seen the damage!! Im not sure about lizards, When I was young I had some anoles with a heat rock, but I was maybe 8?
Anyway, I want to send him some pictures of snakes that have been burnt by heatrocks and I cant find any. Can you guys please post some so I can send them to him and have that taken out, before someone takes his advice??

Heat rocks are worthless and unsafe regardless of what they are being used for. They are notorious for failing and generating hot spots that can burn any live tissue that comes into contact with them, whether it be a lizard, snake, woolly mammoth, whatever.

I know- thats why I wasnt going to get one for the BD Im getting- I just dont trust them.. But I would like to get some pictures for proof, because he doesnt believe me!!

what site was this?

http://users.erols.com/ziring/dragon-care.html In the heating section after: "heating in winter", it has "Heat Rocks".
Cause I was looking up stuff I should do for my BD, and everything was fine aside from that, so I messaged him just saying,
"I like your site, it had alot of really good information that can help me out when I get my BD. The only thing is, heat ricks should never be used with snakes, it can cause severe burns! So if you could please maybe edit that or take it out so that people dont get the wrong idea, I would really appreaciate it. Thanks!"
And I really dont think he believed me...
