GOOGLE BOT MAKES FALSE ARREST!


Hi,
Haven't been able to post for a week or so...
My blog was placed under house arrest by the google bot...

The blogger team sent me an email - here it is:

Fortunately, the humans at Google, have now recognised, and acknowledged the megalomaniac tendencies of their ¨virtual bouncers¨...
The human sent me this:

If you sign out of Blogger andsign back in again, you should be able to post as normal. Thanks for yourpatience, and we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
