I may still tell people that's the reason why a couple of my sites have zeroed out, however. ;) And if at any point a lot of us got together and did it en masse, well, that could be interesting indeed. But I don't see that happening in the foreseeable future. What I've learned from all this is that I need to accrue some stats for my sites that DON'T rely on pagerank. Create an "advertise here" page on each site with links to stats from a third party observer that doesn't even mention PR, and give potential advertisers a real sense of what my site's reach is. I need to be more proactive, and in a way, Google's silliness has pushed me to to get proactive, and that's a good thing. :) I agree that there’s no point to banning Google.
