I think you may be on to something with the correlation of the blogroll. I saw some paid sites go up that were not blogrolled and some that were go down. I had initially suspected sitewide disclosure, but suspect now that its probably the blogroll.

Everybody’s BAP has to be tailored to fit themselves. This sounds like a great plan, Sis!
