I was scratching my head wondering why the Google "dismissed page count" was so high. It's something like 100,000 pages
I think I've spotted the problem.
GoogleBot has found a away to increment the News Archive date picker it seems. Anyway. Google has apparently been busily indexing our news archives... for the future!!!
It has indexed a page every month, from January 2001 through until
November in the year 9945.
I am elated to know that this site will survive that long... but what is going to happen in November 9945?
I think I'll try and get those blocked...
