That's true. I got what they said was the next-to-last room at 7.48, 
after holding the 'phone line from 07:00:00! Where did all the rooms 
go? Are there "block booking" secrets that the big clubs should 
reveal? I have a DX friend who was given a room by a major club just 
a month or so ago. How long before the individual booking deadline 
can block booking start? What's the minimum block? Central Texas DX & 
Contest Club would like to do it for 2003.
