I have had PR3 blogs go to grey bar overnight without doing anything that could be construed as 'black hat'. They have stayed at grey bar for a few months now so I guess Google has slapped me for something. Strangely, the pages still appear in the Google index and still rank on certain search terms. I think you can go crazy trying to work out Pagerank - my advice would be, unless you're selling links and it is important to you, just switch it off and don't worry too much about it.
