OHHH!!! of course, DUH, that makes total sense, now I will check for that just in case. Thanks Edwin!

I will tell you that some of the greatest proof that links pages suck is the often huge difference in PR from home page to links page.

For example, I got a recip request from a PR5 site, most of his pages were PR5 some were PR3 and 4, but only the links pages was a PR1.. This cannot be coincidence.

This quote is something I heard from Aaron Wall (SEOBook) the other day- "Key is to make links look like side effects and not the end goal."

This pretty much sums it all up!
