---- Google's 950 Penalty

I posted the same info on the "Google serp change" forum, but I'm not sure if I am experiencing the 950 penalty or not.

Here's some additional information and my story, for what it is worth:
We have a site I started in 1998, with a PR 5/6 (seems to fluctuate recently).

We are still ranking at #1 for our two top-traffic terms, but we have dropped off of the radar (to the 80's or 90's) for almost everything else.

A couple of our important terms will still show us as #1 IF I put quotes around them.

For example, we currently rank at #88 for area widgets (no quotes), but #1 for "area widgets" (with quotes). Any ideas on this phenomenon?

I am also anxious to see if anyone is slowly showing improvement. Having weathered several of these updates, I am optimistic overall but I haven't seen this exact thing happen before with our site.
