Well, Stu, google kinda intentionally 'hides' or delays showing the current pr in it's toolbars, so, with the google toolbar, the pr you see is out of date, by between a few days to maybe 4 months.

I don't know what "live pr" tool you are using, but tools like that attempt to use a mathematical formula that checks the pr of the pages linking to the page you are testing, does a few calculations, and show you an approximation of what the pr of the page would be if google were to update pr that day.

Neither pr, the official pr on the googlebar, and the calculated pr from the "live pr" tool, is necessarily the "real pr", but nobody but the google engineers ever really knows the real pr of a page anyway.
