Interesting to see another post from Michael Martinez on this. The headline is correct, and he proves it so, by linking to one of his own "experiments" that was not only poorly done, but didn't support the conclusions he reached.

Other than the fact that the second link passed the anchor text, Dan, one might be inclined to agree with you.
