		<description>“Hey, this is the same stuff as that other site, just with a different wrapper” and delete them from the index, lowering the attractiveness of this offering. Fungus, I tell you."

I think you have hit the nail right on the head as quoted above. Google will filter these sites out, as they have nothing to offer there patrons, they are not prepared to put in the hard work required to give there visitors a good experience when visiting there sites.

That is why they resort to spamming, its the easy way out, or so they think :)

Thank you for allowing me my rant:)

Cheers

		<description>Steve,

Really? I'd be surprised if any of these types of sites are actually spending money on advertising. Doesn't fit with their modus operandi. But I'm willing to be wrong on this count and will keep watch. Easy enough to block sites from appearing.</description>

		<description>I sympathize with your frustration. In our search for substantive content, all this radar chaff is something we can do without.

Here's another phrase: "audio Lotrimin." Now if someone can figure out a way to implement it...</description>

		<description>The Fungus Amongus.

I have no opinion on this, I've just been waiting for years for a reason to use the phrase "the fungus amongus."

Thanks!</description>
