>I think it's much more likely it is Sobran's work. The auspices and provenance may be uncertain at this point...

see post #45. Its on the Sobran website, in the archives. For some reason, it doesn't come up on searches.

About a year ago, I found that articles from some major media orgs were no longer cached at google. My hunch was that the orgs threatened google with copyright lawsuits. In Sobran's case, I'm wondering if google decided NOT to list him. I can't imagine him ordering google not to carry his site.

The above may sound weird, but my experience from one year ago, led me to conclude that being carried on google is no longer an automatic thing.

He probably put in a "no-robots" file on his website to conserve bandwidth...and he's really trying to deny that he has the problem he has, so he tries to hide it while leaving it available for those in the know.
