Phark method / text-indent & Google/SEO

[piku]

In regards to this thread about "text-indent" aka. phark method and Google/SEO. Has anyone got any new leads/info about its pros and cons, or is the overall understanding still a "don't do it" factor?

TIA

I'm guessing if screen readers can read the phark method, that a google spider would be able to also.

That's what I thought too. However, I still see some debates against over the net but nothing concrete, that and not really no solid stance from any of Google's minions =) ...so I guess its still a grey area for those that use AdSense in their site(s).
