They shouldn't, but that's not what happens.  Usually using GET wouldn't
modify anything and using POST would, but for the latter that isn't all true.

I believe URLs are prettier without all the information on it.  Using RESTful
URLs helps a lot to avoid that as well.  I don't know his code, but I have the
feeling that he's got a multi-page form and is passing information around.  If
it is that, he'd be able to use hidden fields (what is very interesting to
avoid creating temporary tables on the database or holding a transaction for
too long).
