Links lose 'energy' when the crawler travels, so although you could lead the
page in question to inherit a PR2 or PR3, it would never intensify your own
page further. Values get /distributed/ and they require intervention from
the /outside/ to ever accumulate more 'energy'. It's like the car that uses
dynamo to motor itself. I once spoke to a retired friend who thought he
could achieve it. *LOL*
Hope it helps,
