I hate to be a wet blanket, but IMO the rumours are getting out of hand. 
Remember
where this apparently started - from a virtual reprint of an old, untrue 
article in
a U.K. magazine/newspaper. As for the above, it references Toronto's Q107, but 
only
states that the rumours are "heating up" and that the fellas have been seen at 
TM?
If there were to be a Q107 reference, what about that supposed JPJ interview 
that
they'd purportedly done recently?? I know there was a theory the other day that 
the
webmaster might not've updated their site over the weekend, but I have to think 
that,
given the enormity of this news if it were true, they'd call the guy into work 
for an
hour or two. :) Of course, being a webmaster, he could probably do a quick 
update from
his home in his bathrobe if it were that pressing. And keep in mind that the 
world of
radio probably isn't the same as working the line at Chrysler - I can't imagine 
weekends
matter all that much, given that radio operates 24/7 (i.e. DJs and their 
support crew are
always there).

If this JPJ "confirmation" interview on Q107 did in fact happen, someone 
would've scooped
it (I mean besides that one blogger). They certainly wouldn't wait for Q107 themselves to 
get the info out there - and yet I couldn't find anything about it online (you'd think 
that would at least come up in the first few Google pages).
