I skimmed through this post and it looks like sanity has arrived already.

But... I thought I'd share my experience working with high PR sites.

I have a few clients that have PR 7s and 8s and it certainly helps their SEO.
They can pretty much pick keywords at will, create some on page SEOd content, build some links and very quickly rank on the first page of google.

Also, we monitor the ranking of several hundred thousand websites and several million keywords. There's definitely a strong correlation between PageRank and the ability for a site to rank high in the SERPs for their chosen keywords.

All that said, there's not much you can do to increase your PR that a good SEO professional isn't doing already. (ie writing good content and building good links) So, there's no sense worrying about what your PR is.

I like the metaphor above getting laid above. For those with low PR, it's kindof like having a small youknowwhat. There's no sense in worrying about it. It's not going to grow just staring at it. Make do with what you got.
