Well, the second domain isn’t currently indexed even though it does have its pagerank. Its pretty weird! I expect that after I add a few new backlinks, it should get re-indexed, but I’ll have to post updates about that when it happens.

hey John,
Thanks for publishing your results. I’d much rather see actual examples than speculation (especially when speculation is presented as gospel). I’m not surprised that pagerank didn’t transfer, but it’s nice to see an actual experiment. It is interesting to see the keyword rankings transfer, and even more interesting that your old domain recovered when you got it back up. I like that last finding a lot, since it is possible to have domains “go down” for a while for a variety of reasons. ~ Steve, the trade show guy (and trade show ninja)
