This question is aimed at askscott as he already spent considerable
time and effort on my behalf. Google is still responding to my old
title headers and are still ignoring the new ones. Has Googles robot
been round recently or am I just being impatient?

Hello pig-ga,

The monthly crawl (or approximately monthly crawl) has not started
yet.  The Google Update History page on WebmasterWorld (
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/2657.htm ) does not list a new
update.  But even better evidence that the update has not begun are
these threads:

"Alright enough lets update" (February 25, 2003 to present) 
WebmasterWorld 
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/9608.htm

"Google Update Neer" (March 2, 2003 to present)
WebmasterWorld
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum3/9814.htm

You'll see there that webmasters are still waiting for the deep crawl.
 You might want to check the end of these discussion threads once a
day, to see if anything has changed.

I should note that, even when the update has begun, you may have to
wait several days until the update is complete.  During that time, you
may notice what is known as the Google Dance -- a shuffling of old and
new web pages and of the ranks of the pages:

"Google Dance - The Index Update of the Google Search Engine"
eFactory
http://dance.efactory.de/

Thanks for asking for me -- it's a nice feeling to know that you liked
my previous work.  I hope that this answer has measured up to your
standards.

Thanks Scott, very reassuring. By the way my name is Jeff. I will look
at these site addresses you gave me on a daily basis to see what the
state of play is. Thanks again for your extensive and speedy help.

I shall be looking for other ways to increase my rankings once the
robot is using my newer title headers again and so I am sure I shall
be pestering you again!!

Thanks for your kind words; I look forward to your future questions. 
My hope is that, given all of the care you are putting into your web
site, you will soon get the listing on Google and response from
customers that you want.

Very quick with extensive proof to back it up.
