Looking for a helping hand...

Does anyone know anyone at Google who can help me? I refer to the problem of my blog suddenly and apparently arbitrarily disappearing from the results of a search for "Matt Mower" that I reported in November and confirmed earlier in January. Google don't appear to respond to a message sent via their request form so what the hell are you supposed to do?

It's not like some other Matt Mower suddenly became more relevant than me and knocked me down a peg or two. That I could live with. What has happened is that my blog has just gone and the rest of the search results (which are still primarily about me) have moved up a rung or two.

Since everybody these days equates what's in Google with what exists on the web, Google are effectively saying "This guy's blog doesn't exist." How can this be right? Where was my right of appeal? As a blogger, as a person, this sucks.

Surely there is some kind soul out there who can help me? Please.
