Not to mention splitting people up and keeping them out of the room with 
the bidding!  It might be OK as a staging area and pre-viewing, but as 
soon as that first bid starts at noon, that room (should we use it) would 
need to be cleared.

No, that particular item you DIDN'T miss.  My memory is that we talked 
about having some of the larger items in the halls, but that was it.  I 
suggest we don't say anything about 118 in the newsletter.
