I am perplexed. What am I overlooking? What fundamental thing do I just
not understand?

Thanks for ANY ideas!


I must have misunderstood something. The wet spot on carpet is high
point of the room? Stain or mineral deposit on wet area, signifying
long-term moisture? Now that the carpet is up, lay newspaper down over
entire floor and check it daily for moisture. Is their a ceiling
fixture in the room above wet spot - a leak upstairs that could traverse
a pipe, beam or wire and drip out through fixture?
