This time I quote you with pleasure because for some reason you forgot about your "unconditional love for Google, my Lord" attitude :).

I'll...draw your attention to the fact that I was critical of the AdSense program from day one. I believe I was the first person here who referred to the "Pandora's Box" that Google opened when it launched AdSense the way it did back in 2003. I believe AdSense, Google, and the Web would all be better off if Google were more draconian in purging worthless publishers from AdSense and greyhat sites from its SERPs. "Unconditional love"? I don't think so. I do think Google is better than its competitors and that AdSense is better than other CPC text-ad networks, though, and I don't have a lot of patience with AdSense publishers who think it was invented as a giveway program for the get-rich-quick crowd.
