As far as I'm concerned, keyword density = red herring


Ok, but one has to ask what the differences are between keyword density (a non-factor) and keyword stuffing (which, if I am not mistaken, is something Matt Cutts has said to avoid)?

Or to be more precise, what exactly IS keyword stuffing if it ISN'T inflated keyword density, and is it responsible for recent drops in ranking?

EDIT: After viewing the link that tedster posted, there is a reference to unnatural sounding text. Wondering how much the algo takes proper use of grammar into account?
