Ignore Robots meta tag

Hi,

I am trying to index a website. That website has 
  <meta name='ROBOTS' content='NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW'> in their html file.

If they want to remove this, they will have to remove it in all their pages
and they don't want to regenerate these pages from database.

I already crawled this website. Is there anyway I can make Nutch to ignore
the above and index the page?

One way I can think of is:
a) Retrieve HTML from segments
b) Remove that line
c) Write back
d) Re-index

Anyone has a better solution? Can I use PruneIndexTool?

If the above is the way I go about it, how do I do it...I mean, what are the
commands I need to issue/classes I need to call and modify?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Karthik

OOPS...I meant IndexSegment. 
PruneIndexTool prunes existing Nutch indexes of unwanted content. :-)
