I have been in that room and sat in THE chair. I will tell you it is small and unassuming. They needed a bigger and better room for this and one that is state of the art.

By posting that picture ... I don't know exactly how to put this ... but are you aware of what a serious breach of security that is? I mean, they'll see everything. They'll... they'll see the Big Board!
