When reading this post this morning it occurred to me that the drops started after I installed Lion. I did a Google search and check this out:

To sum up some of those links. It's apparently related to certain but not all wireless cards. Advice to fix is to: turn Airport off, unplug router from power, wait a minute, plug router into power, startup mac, turn Airport on. Which resets wireless things and often solves the problem. And Apple's working on a fix.
