Thanks, Tom. I figured it was something real. My comment was meant as a joke, remembering that pages-long thread about nothing that resurfaces from time to time.
With regards WM closing some resorts, I keep seeing availability at places that normally don't have any/much, but I haven't tried to book anything. I still have Memorial Day weekend booked at Depoe Bay, and I'm hoping to actually be able to use it. I haven't checked on resorts that are known to be closed, but the whole thing just seems to be in flux right now.
I wonder if WM could be persuaded to extend the expiration date of credits returned to user accounts from forced cancellations happening now. If resorts are closed, and reservations have to be cancelled, there's going to be a lot of people with bulging accounts that will need a bit of creative management. Scheduling a stay far in advance just to keep credits from expiring isn't necessarily going to work for everyone.
