Well if you believe in this guy then you'll believe in the tooth fairy. For the last 5 dances my partner and I have had a page 1 listing for a reasonable search term and I can tell you that it is impossible to guarantee that you will retain any spot on the first page.
We've had #1, we've also had #3, #5 and this month we're at #6. A friend of ours has shared that page 1 with us all that time until this re-shuffle when he got dumped off page 1 all together.
The current #1 spot is held by a site that wasn't even on page 3 last time but should have been right up there on page 1 all the time we have been.
There have been people trying to crack Google's algorithm for ages without much success - I doubt that the wiz who started this thread has done any better.
Now all I need to hear from him is that it's all done with meta tags
