After I found out about sh mac-address-table from Mike M (Thanks Mike!)
I narrowed it down to a Netgear POS switch.  I swapped that for another
2970 so I could find the source.  But noooo...

It's moving around my network!  Gi0/24 is a trunk to 2970_2 and Gi0/4 is
a trunk to 2970_3

Computers... gotta love 'em, because it gets pretty expensive to take
