When doing some reading about Barnett's UFC title reign, I came across this website: http://www.mmafighting.com/news/joshbarnett.html

A couple of questions:

1. Can anyone confirm the exact date that the UFC stripped Barnett of the title?

2. Does anyone have enough information to address the article on the above-mentioned website titled "Independent Drug Test Proves Josh Barnett’s Innocence"? Specifically, the article seems to make note of an additional positive drug test from 11/02/01.
