I have done.
Like I said -- the idea sucks. So much it blows goats.
Your rigidly disciplined approach to writing:

actually appalls and horrifies me. Our styles and above all,
approaches, to writing obviously differ greatly.
Normally, the ONLY thing which remains unchanged with any document I
publish on the internet, is where to find it. That is, the pointer to
the document usually remains fixed. However, I may choose to publish
elsewhere; or the internal contents of the document, may (and do),
vary enormously from time to time. I don't care. Really.
> It's not quality vs. ranking. It pure common sense: don't kill your document
I am not so strung up on whether google displays my document or not as
to consider the document 'killed' (what strange concepts you have!) if
it doesn't show up there.
Also, I suspect that the people who want to read what I have to say
use entirely different search methods from the only one you seem able to
conceive of.
Sorry, Chris -- I seem to write for entirely different reasons from you.
A little more tolerance of writers' indivdual styles and preferences
seems to be called for here.
