Page  blanking and oversight are generally only done AFTER problems  are
identified.  Marking our non-product pages as non-indexable  reduces
the likelihood of problems in the first place - what generally  bothers
someone is not that things are written about them but that they  show
up on the first page of Google  results.>>


-----------------
It is in the very nature of the internet that you discover problems after  
they've been typed out.  I mean I don't even understand this issue.   We in 
order to preempt a few specific, isolated cases, want to blank a few  *million* 
pages of data?
 
That doesn't sound like over kill?
