I don't see any "conspiracy" anywhere.  But I guess that would depend
on why they've been doing it.

No evidence?  I provided it: "The fact that this has happened to
countless site owners, and for SIX (6) Christmas's in a row, proves
it's G that's doing it.  Sure, it CAN be caused by a host blocking
IP's they should not be blocking, but that's rare, and more so; why
would so many site owners' hosts suddenly all start blocking G IP's??
Not gonna happen."

Do you think all that is just a coincidence?  Thousands of sites
owners, all at the same time every year, just a coincidence?  No way.
I've been following this for years now, and the pattern is the same
every year around Sept.-Nov.  All the webmaster forums have similar
threads and posts about "strange unexplained" things happening during
this period every year, causing the deletion of white-hat websites.
It has personally happened to me SIX YEARS in a ROW.  For the past 3
years, it's been this "Network unreachable" problem causing page and
site deletions.  Apparently there is indeed something to this as John
alluded to in his post.

Good questions, could be.
