steveb, what you refer to, as you surmise, is a different issue. We can pull up the lost pages using the G Site Searach thingy, and the page most relevant to the specific term searched on comes up first when using that tool, often with no Supp results in sight. We just don't see the relevant pages in the real SERP's.

Also for steveb: Not wanting to stray more OT than some of this thread has gone, to what do you attribute the issue you're noting? Basically external dup content? I ask because it might help people distinguish between the two similar, but quite different, problems. (I know the issue to which you refer has been discussed a lot in the non-update thread.)
