This points up one of the reasons I am resistant to shuffling tires around.  If 
you had let them be, you would know without doubt which corner had a problem.  
Now all you know is that either the RF or the RR has a problem, maybe both of 
them.

The main point of rotating tires appears to be so the tire company can sell you 
4 tires at a time, rather than just one or two.
