Ok, you convinced me. I'll give it a shot. I just edited my robots.txt to disallow both the detail and tag pages. I have been seeing a trickle of traffic off of a few of those detail pages, and hate to lose a single daily hit, but I did say I was willing to experiment. Hopefully this proves helpful. If not, it's a lesson learned and it's not as if there is a heavy amount of traffic at risk.
