Also, in my experience looking at Pandalized sites, I feel that most of those who built them are in denial about what the problems are and about how much work it's going to take to fix them.

Yes that was me. I'm just starting to get it after being hit by the first round of Panda almost a year ago.

I really appreciate these extra tips, I'm getting more clear on what to do and how to do it.

Strip it down and beef up the essentials.
