Aleph – I agree 
(I started the thread.)
I think they are up to something as this new algo is just simply crazy. For a few very good keyword phrases I am seeing NO affiliate type sites in the top 10 and only a couple in the top 20.
Lots of amazon pages, ISP sites (aol, prodigy, earthlink etc), google directory listings, dmoz directory listings, etc etc
Nearly all the data centers are beginning to line up, so this may very well be the final product, or something very close to it.
Oh well :cheers: – time for another!
