Stavros: Thank you for clarifying my (rather elliptical) answer!

Brian: If you migrate to HGR2, the next risk for certain games is string 
storage, which grows down from $(6F.70).

Program begin:  $(67.68)
Variable begin: $(69.6A)
Array begin:    $(6B.6C)
Array end:      $(6D.6E)
String start:   $(6F.70)
