Is it conceivable that if you have two URL's that redirect to the same location on your server, that google might misinterpret one URL (the one you want to show for the listing) for the other one? I think this is what happened to one listing, and just curious.

Basically, how does google handle the issue when (n) URL's map to the exact same location AND google can't resolve the ultimate destination (say you redirect using javascript).

Possibilities:

1) PR0 for duplicate content in multiple domains.
2) Confusion - Wrong domain listed in SERPs.
3) Lucky (not #1 or #2, but for how long?)

Redirect to one "standard" domain using a 301-Moved Permanently server redirect and promote only this one domain to avoid problems.
