Well Jeff, I've been told privately by A Reliable Source that my information
was incorrect, as is your bet.  I am not at liberty to pass on the
information I have; suffice to say that the answer is one I would have never
guessed at.

I have also been told by my Source that the area formerly occupied by Forum
Room 1 is going to be put to another use this year.  I'll bet you apples to
oranges that when people find out what that use is, the user will be blamed
for forum relocation.
