I certainly get that point. However, that's a different issue, unrelated 
to the RESTfulness of a URI.

There are cases where it's probably a good thing that Google doesn't 
index certain pages. There's way to much garbage that people force 
Google to index that just makes finding what you really want next to 
impossible.

Forums that get indexed come to mind. It drives me nuts that such a 
large percentage of what I'm looking for gets obscured by a bunch of 
useless hits on forum discussions. Blogs, yes. Forum posts I could live 
without in my search results!

SEO is great, and useful, for sites that provide really useful search 
content, but there much that needs to be put on the web that really has 
no business showing up in Google results.
