Can't find that thread though anyone else remember it?

I don't know, there is a halo around one off the ceiling lights that is round, but it is different than the rest of the "orbs"

It looks like a lens flare from the light above. The other orbs do not follow a lens flare pattern, though.

I'm skeptical of these orbs.

I've seen pictures of colored orbs that I feel are more believable than these.

Where is there any proof that these are anything other than lens flare or light reflections?

This orb (the most visible one) looks as if it's in the center of the photo....could this be due to a delay in the shutter of the camera??

Beats me, I have never studied orbs or photographic abnormalities. There is faint one in the upper left hand corner that is not round.
