From the November 20th CRO Road Report...
In the meantime, though, we would be focused on buying and selling coins on Friday, and, after Dave joined me at the table we did a lot of each, causing most of the day to fly buy at breakneck speed sufficient for us to forget to eat lunch until mid afternoon, at which time I went out to the lunch counter and discovered that it had been dismantled and removed not 10 minutes earlier. That sucked.
I forgot about it pretty quickly, however, when I walked into the men’s room and saw something I’ve never before encountered at a coin show: the off-putting sight of some guy in the stall on his hands and knees with coins spread out on the floor as he was carefully placing them in various Whitman albums.
Thankfully, I could only see his hands and feet (and all those coins), but I was sufficiently freaked out to turn around and leave immediately.

It's amazing how certain situations make you forget entirely that you have a camera.
I wonder why the Whitman Folder fellow needed the stall? Perhaps a convenient place to dip the coins?
<< <i>And I bet he had a cell phone camera ready.

"some guy in the stall on his hands and knees"
That is not the #2 position. It doesn't sound like the fellow was sitting.
We may need a clarification from the author on this one.
Hoard the keys.

Cause the coins fell out and now he is down on the floor getting them.
It may be reather hard to reach the floor while you are STILL seated.

Are we then left to assume he rinsed them in the toilet?
