LIFE EXTENSION PROJECT "MORTALITY" = "RECLUSE" 06/16/06

I BROKE THE HANSO FOUNDATION WEBSITE

Well, not really. But the site has become inaccessible. For those who have not solved this clue… PLEASE PAY CLOSE ATTENTION!! Write everything down and take screen prints. There is a lot of information that comes along during this clue and there is no way to reproduce it. So keep tabs on what you are doing. You've been cautioned...

Using the clue from the Persephone Page from today (“RECLUSE”), go to the Life Extension Project page on the Hanso Foundation website and click on the word “mortality”. A log-in box will appear. Enter “recluse” and hold onto your hat!

"Why extend your life to live in hiding?" text appears.

You will then see the image of the outside of an envelope that states: “Addressee Unknown: Return to Sender”. Click on the image and another spyglass document (recall Peter Thompson signature / GWC documents) can be read:

“Senor Hanso,

It occurs to me, at this point, I am attempting to correspond with a phantom. Had I not personally attended to you three months prior, I, too, would doubt your existence – the worldwide prominence of your name notwithstanding.

The letters I sent to your business address were returned with notes explaining your office does not accept unsolicited correspondence. The follow-up I sent to your Narvik Villa was returned with a postal mark claiming “no such addressee.” I feel compelled, however, to attempt a final letter – I hired an investigator to track you down. It is not that I do not respect your personal desire for privacy, S. Hanso; it is that your condition gives me cause for concern. You will, no doubt, recall you were admitted after collapsing with a myocardial infection while in Madrid. You were admitted, in a state of mild delirium, by the staff of the hotel in which you were a guest (though the hotel later claimed to have no record of your stay).

At the point which I began treating you, you demanded no blood be drawn. Several hours later, you requested I release you into the care of your personal physician, who had that moment arrived with your staff. Against my strenuous recommendation, you had yourself discharged.

The reason I write is to explain why, against your wishes, I did, in fact, draw your blood. At the time, I believed it prudent to obtain all information. Your disorientation allowed me to obtain the sample and seemed proof of your incapacity.

But now, the results of your blood test have prompted me to embark on this wild goose chase. It is imperative I reach you – your test results are most unusual, and I have reason for concern you may suffer a serious, even fatal, heart attack in the near future.

Futile as it seems, S. Hanso, I feel bound by the oath I took as a physician to inform you of your circumstance. And, further (please forgive the personal nature of this confession), I feel as though something is amiss. On more than one occasion, gentlemen have made inquiries into your hospital stay. It seems your Madrid episode is among only a handful of times, in recent years, that you have made documented contact with the world at large. And while I anticipate that this letter too, will be returned unopened, I feel you are owed at least the effort of my attempt.

Hope this finds you (well)
Eliza Vasquez, M.D.”

It seems Alvar Hanso was sick when in Madrid, Spain and sought medical treatment but had to be sent to a hospital. The doctor who treated him had some interesting observations.

After reading the letter, click on the name at the bottom of the screen (the ARG creators are big on signature clicking) and you will see the following message:

“The Hanso Foundation – Copenhagen”

The screen fills with the images from surveillance cameras at the Hanso Foundation in Copenhagen.

These three camera images show the following areas of the building:
CAM1 CARPARK ALVAR HANSO PARKING SPACE
CAM42 CARPARK ALVAR HANSO OFFICE DESK
CAM23 ALVAR HANSO PARLOR

Cam1 shows an empty parking space. An occasional employee passes in front of the camera. Cam42 shows Alvar Hanso’s desk with a large pile of documents with letter opener, a CD in jewel case and some newspapers, and the Cam23 shows what looks to be an elevator, the occasional employee passes in front of this camera also.

Click on the camera image frames and the date on the screen is updated. The items disappear from Hanso's desk in this order each time you advance: On September 13, 2004 the printout is removed from the desk, on March 25, 2005 the disc and file is removed and on June 15, 2006 the letters, which are held in place by a letter opener in the shape of a dagger, are taken. Afterwards, Persephone will greet you with…

“Is he a recluse or a prisoner?
Why would he allow such evil things
to be done in his name?”

WHERE IS ALVAR?

A small box appears which reads:
“Disturbing isn’t it?
And there’s more.
So much more. I can help
connect the dots…”

Click on the box and another box appears with a log-in box beneath it:
“Do you want to know the rest?
Then enter the name of the director of the VIK
Institute… Armand… ?”

Enter “Zander” and Persephone responds:

“Cool! Thanks Sorry for all the cloak and dagger stuff but I have to be careful who I trust.
I think Mittlewerk is the key to all this - I need to find out what he is up to with all of these programs! I'm gonna...”

"NOBODY IS SAFE!"

I believe that there was more text here but I did not get a screen print and could not remember the rest. Anyone else pick up the additions? This is where the Hanso Foundation website explodes. There is a lot of flashing light, screaming, broken glass, crying babies, explosions, electromagnetic incidents and then this final message from the Hanso Foundation.

The screen reads in red letters:
The Hanso Foundation site has been hacked by malicious infiltrators seeking to blemish the good work of many dedicated researchers. Until a legal investigation is completed, the site will no longer be accessible to the public. Namaste.

NOTE: If you haven't realize by now the goal of the Lost Experience Alternate Reality Game is to locate Alvar Hanso and find out what happened to him. Someone close to him, that cares, is searching for him in the guise of Persephone. It is our goal, people, to help her find him!!!

Another note: Look for June 19th to be a big day in the game. Not only does the Verizon forum have a thread posted for that future date but the Hanso "recluse" hack camera surveillance scenes end on this date also!

To return back to the Hanso Foundation a back door has been found. Go to the Retrievers of Truth website, enter the "porter" password. Open the "I have a very bad feeling about this" thread date 04/19/06. It looks like the word "people" is a back door back into the Hanso Foundation site.

RETRIEVERS OF TRUTH / D.J. DAN VIDEOCAST 06/16/06

The guys at the Verizon forum are at it again. Weird posts though as one is dated two days into the future. Hmm....

And there is this post under this heading: The best place to hide something is right under our noses. - 06/19/06 "Have you been to the http://www.broadbandstories.com/ lately?" They discuss the videos found at this site and mention that D.J. Dan has a videocast. His is the fourth from the left in the bottom row of videos. And it looked like our Verizon guys have hooked up with someone special… they didn’t come out and say but I think we may be hearing from Persephone, Dr. Bole or D.J. Dan very soon through them. And, who would have thought that D.J. Dan was a Serenity/Firefly fan? "You Can't Stop The Signal!" was posted in his videocast today. http://www.fireflywiki.org/Firefly/HomePage Joss and I are with you, Danny boy!

In the Thread called: Speak up if you got something to say - 6/16/06 our heroes look like they are being quizzed about the Hanso Foundation. The last two lines of the conversation are interesting and read:
BroadBandBeatnik5:50pm A wise man once said we are all merely players in this game.
Fiberoptician6:00pm Ha! Well in that case I'd prefer to be the board.

PERSEPHONE'S PAGE 06/16/06

Persephone's page at http://persephone.thehansofoundation.org/ has changed again today. The image shown above has posted to the system. There does not seem to be any clickable links so, rather than a clue of number or words to digest and decode it looks like she has left us with an image to decypher. The file name is 7800isus.jpg and the visible items are:
a pair of Scissors
an Eraser
a playing Card
an Umbrella
Lipstick
a small tape Recorder
an Envelope

Pretty much your standard spy fare, wouldn't you say?

Together these items spell RECLUSE. A new password box comes up if you click on the word "mortality" on the Life Extension Project page of the Hanso site. The password is "recluse".

WARNING! There are reports that you cannot get back into the Hanso site after looking at the clues. I'll update more in moments...

Note: The Retrievers of Truth Message Board has been updated too. D.J. Dan is mentioned.

D. J. DAN PODCAST 6/16/06

The D. J. Dan site has changed. Under Podcast Archives the single small word "Hello" is now visible at the top of the screen. Clicking on this word takes you to the www.subLYMONal.com site. We're still checking to see how to access the podcast but it looks like it will be through submitting the correct word into the subLYMONal site. And we thought this site was all used up!!! More to follow...

Also, the last image in the top row and all bottom images are now clickable and take you to the subLYMONal site. The new fallout pattern image has the word "BigD" printed in white letters with green lights visible. Still checking for the correct password or sequence...

Update:
Click on the tiny “Hello” in the Podcast Archives section of the website (refresh if you don't see it) or one of the hot link images at the bottom of the screen. You will be redirected to the subLYMONal website. Type “hello” into the box and click submit. When the three screens come up click on the left-hand screen (with Lymonhead). In the Speak box type “BigD” (case sensitive) (clue is from the image of fallout1.gif from DJ Dan site as I reported early this morning) and click Speak for the newest D.J. Dan podcast.

Update:
You can now click on the 6/13 link to access the subLYMONal site on the D.J. Dan site.

Transcription is as follows:

"Intro music

Announcer: Coming to you live, from the astral plain...

Singing : D. J. Dan!

Announcer: You're listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the man!

D.J. Dan: Okay, okay, okay. So, my little conspiraspies, listen to this one. There’s something rotten in the state that used to be part of Denmark... I'm talkin’ Iceland. I'm talkin’ what’s become the hottest nightlife destination north of the equator. I'm talkin’ the south beach of the north Atlantic. Hey, as far as my wife knows, I've never been to Iceland. You know what I mean? I think you do. Now, if you know anything about Iceland, you know they barely have a police force. And why? These people have no idea what crime is. I mean they let Bjork walk the streets. Right, Tonya? Do you like Bjork?

Tonya: Wait, wait, wait, was she in her duck outfit?

D.J. Dan: (Laughs) You know, that aside, trust me, they've got their share of crimes. It’s going on right under their noses, and nobody’s doing anything about it. Well, I'm here to change that! I'm here to talk about the unreported crimes of Iceland’s very own VIK Institute, a mental hospital funded by none other than... (Eerie music) (Laughter)

Deep voice: The Hanso Foundation! (Laughter)

D.J. Dan: Yep! These are the guys, you see them on T.V., they're building a bridge to a glowing future of peace. They're harnessing the atoms to give us nuclear genius children. You get it! They're the altruistic society of researchers, started by this Alvar Hanso, who used to make machines of war! And apparently got hit with a case of the guilty jerries and decided, "Hey! I'm gonna start anew!" Do you know what they say about leopards? They'll bite you in the neck. Or is that white tigers...? I don't know. Point being, what is going on at the VIK Institute? No one really knows. But thanks to the work of a hacker known only as Persephone, we're starting to get a picture. We've got a disgruntled head of the hospital, Dr. Armand Zander who sends a letter to Dr. Thomas Werner Mittelwerk, Alvar Hanso's pitbull, demanding to know what’s going on at his own facility! Go to the Hanso site right now and check the hack in the Mental Health Appeal! It'll blow your mind! Right off the bat, Zander calls himself a prisoner in a hall of mirrors, and he goes on to talk about autistic savant patients being administered secret proprietary memory tests. I mean, just what is going on? I don't know, but I say we shut 'em down! Marissa from Trenton, go ahead.

Marissa: Hey D.J. Danny! What if The Hanso Foundation really isn't up to anything at all?

D.J. Dan: Shutdown! C'mon, people!! I'm reading off the darn website! Jorge from Portland, how is that microbrew?

Jorge: Hey, how's it going, D.J. Dan? Man, I'm on the page right now. Um, I'm wondering what are autistic, are autistic savants, again?

D.J. Dan: Well, uh, it varies. But alot of times, they're like, uh, they're like human calculators. You, uh, you ever see Rainman, Jorge?

Jorge: Yah!

D.J. Dan: You tryin' to be cute, Jorge?

Jorge: Yah, ha ha ha, yah.

D.J. Dan: Shutdown! Tonya, are you even screening these calls?

Tonya: Screening the calls.

D.J. Dan: Oh, c'mon, Tonya, not you, too. Is she.. Okay. You're getting back at me for telling your age on the air last week, aren't you?

Tanya: Screening the calls.

D.J. Dan: I said you were a young thirty... Tom from Orlando, bring me the magic.

Tom: Hey, D.J. Dan! (Laughs) So, I think I've got if figured out!

D.J. Dan: Yeah. Do tell.

Tom: Well, I was just imagining if I'm Mittelwerk, and, I'm calculating some top secret stuff...

D.J. Dan: Yeah, uh, like what?

Tom: I don't know... like...

Voice in background: Nuclear fusion!

Tom: Like nuclear fusion!

Static

D.J. Dan: Okay, get on with it, c'mon!

Tom: I'm calculating nuclear fusion and I've got a history of getting into trouble. The one thing I don’t wanna do or happen is a data record of what I'm doing...

D.J. Dan: Okay, so what you're saying here, is that you don't use a computer at all?

Tom: Exactly! (Laughs again) I do it in my head! Or, or, or in the case of the VIK Institute, I get these autistic savants to do it in their heads...

D.J. Dan: Yeah, but the thing is about autistic savants, you can never really know what they're actually capable of doing, and see, so...

Tom: So, so I subject them to proprietary memory tests. Yeah.

D.J. Dan: Tom... Nice! I like it!!

Tom: Yeah!

D.J. Dan: And I'm giving you reefer stinkin' ass conspiraspy of the month! You hear that, Tonya?

Tonya: Conspiraspy of the month.

D.J. Dan: Can we sign up Tom as conspiraspy of the month?

Tonya: Conspiraspy of the month.

D.J. Dan: Tonya, please, are you really that mad at me?

Tanya: Conspiraspy of the month.

D.J. Dan: Yeah, yeah.. Okay, it looks like the inmates are running the asylum, folks. D.J. Dan! BRB.

Announcer: You're listening to D.J. Dan! Shutting down the man!

Outro music"

Observations:
1. Bjork’s outfit was a Swan not a duck…. oh, and everything comes back to the Lost show somehow, doesn’t it?
2. Denmark did once include Iceland.
3. The VIK Institute has problems…The head of the hospital, Dr. Armand Zander (Zander being also the nickname of one of the Widmore twins in “Bad Twin”) has no clue as to what is happening in his own hospital. Zander is a prisoner in a “hall of mirrors”… as he states Another clue perhaps? And autistic savants are being administered memory tests. Why? So perhaps the savants are used so that no paper trail can be found… but if Zander has no control of his own hospital, who does?
4. D.J. Dan also ends his podcast by saying the “inmates are running the asylum.” "inmate asylum” was a password for the Vanderfield/Peck Executive Bios. log-in. Did we miss something there? Is he giving us a subtle clue to re-visit? We’ll take a look and see what we can see.
5. Also, Tonya says Conspiraspy of the month three time and D.J. Dan twice. We'll need to keep an eye on the Conspriaspy of the Month link.
6. Because of the mention of the hack in the Mental Health Appeal we know that this podcast was recorded in the past few days. (The Zander letter was only uncovered on Tuesday of this week.)

Next podcast coming on 6/21...

D.J. DAN LIVES! PODCAST 06/14/06

From the Verizon forum page of Retrievers of Truth click on the new entry: “Too legit to quit” and the Verizon guys are at it again. They have included D.J. Dan as an associate fighting for the same cause (against Hanso no less) and have left the following website to his newest poddcast.

D.J. Dan Podcast 06/13/06

The file is called "ElectromagnetismAntenna" and is 3 minutes 30 seconds long. Find the transcript below:

Announcer: Coming to you live from your conscience.

Singing: D. J. Dan

Announcer : You’re listening to D. J. Dan. Shutting down the man.

D. J. Dan: Mind control, people. We’re talking about mind control. Come on… we all know why MDMA and LSD and PCP and GHB and LMNOP are illegal. Because the man doesn’t want you to have the very weapons he’s dumping in our drinking water and our mac and cheese. So, I ask, have you been brainwashed? Are you being brainwashed? Do you wanna be brainwashed? We’re taking your calls…

Dubuque: Hi, I’m Dubuque from Albuquerque.

D.J. Dan: You’re kidding, right?

Dubuque: Parents can be cruel, D.J. Dan. Anyways, uhh… Dan, I, I feel like you’re right! We are being brainwashed. I mean, I’m pretty close to Las Alamos and all their nuclear experiments and I, I just feel this pressure on my brain, all the time.

D.J. Dan: Yeah, uh that could just be your sinuses Dubby. Just throwin’ it out there.

Dubuque: What I’m sayin’ here is that I notice somethin’ when I was makin’ my cinnamon raisin toast. My toaster… it blocked the rays. When I was toastin’ I felt as close to clear as day.

D.J. Dan: Fascinating, Dubuque. Turn down your toasters people. Next caller.

Jerry: It’s, uhh, Jerry from Ontario.

D.J. Dan: Uh-oh, we’ve got ourselves a Canuck!

Jerry: Yeah, we come in peace. Listen Dan, I wanted to say in response to what you were saying earlier about the Hanso Foundation. Do you really think they are involved in mind control?

D.J. Dan: It’s just the tip of the iceberg Jerry. Tip of the iceberg. It’s like, who are these guys? To recap those of you who missed it, my legion of conspiraspies has been following the Hanso Foundation since ’92 when they were forcefully ejected from the Congo. I mean seriously To be forcefully ejected from the Congo… how bad to you gotta be? What does a clown have to do to get ejected from the circus? What does a rat have to do to get ejected from the sewer? So, some of my conspiraspies went deep-sea fishing off the coast of East Asia? Cause, eh, they heard about our Hanso friends little off-shore research platform. And they can’t see it but, ah, but what they can see is this skinny little line sticking way up in the sky. Now, what do you guys think that might be, uhh? Who are we kidding? Hope you have your foil helmets on boys and girls. Next caller!

Franklin: Dan, this is Franklin. I teach bioengineering at a Big 10 University.

D.J. Dan: Hut, hut, Franklin! Hike me the info!

Franklin: Well, what I’m worried about is nano-technology.

D.J. Dan: Uh, nano-tech-what?

Franklin: Nano-technology. It’s essentially the miniaturization of machines down to the molecular level.

D.J. Dan: Uh, wait, wait, whoa, whoa! You mean robots so small they’re invisible? That sounds awful! Why would anybody wanna do that?

Franklin: Well, there’s lots of useful applications. Medicine, computers… For example, you could capture billions of these nanites.

D.J. Dan: Nanites? Nanites… is that geek for invisible tiny robots?

Franklin: Right! You could capture them in an electromagnetic field and have them float over, say, wheat fields acting as a poison-free pesticide.

D.J. Dan: Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Wait a minute! Wha… what does that even look like? If a, a, bunch of these nano-thingies got together? What are we talkin’ about here?

Franklin: Something like a stormcloud!

D.J. Dan: (Laughs) O.K. Franky, sometimes a storm cloud is just a storm cloud. So, so wait a second. Wait a second! So, so you’re saying that these tiny invisible robots can kill?

Franklin: Yes! And they can think!

D.J. Dan: Well, you heard it, folks, tiny invisible killer brains. And I was worried about the Hanso Foundation. D. J. Dan. Back in three… Have to slip into my impenetrable lead suit.

Outro music

Announcer: You’re listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the man!

And another tie-in to the series. I think we all know what the island smoke is now! Nanites unite!!

P.S. On the D.J. Dan website if you go to the Conspiracy of the Month and click on the top image of the shark it takes you to the Monster.com site with the podcast for 06/08.

P.S.S. The following countries are located in geographic East Asia: The People's Republic of China (including Hong Kong and Macau), Republic of China (Taiwan), Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), Republic of Korea (South Korea), Japan, and Mongolia.

MENTAL HEALTH APPEAL (HOLE4) “light sequence again”

After trying a hundred different combinations with the Hole filenames and not coming to the following conclusion… a password was reported today via the steps listed below:
The file names for Hole 2, 3, & 4 are: q9als2002, t9agen75, and u8egnce86.
Persephone's message, “+1 timeless together”, is a clue that we should, 1) time less = remove the dates from the sequence and 2) together = put the rest together. So, if you take away 2002, 75 and 86 (the time) from the file names, you are left with "q9alst9agenu8egnce" and if you use simple alphanumeric replacement (9=1 and 8=h) you get "qialstiagenuhegnce" which is an anagram for "light sequence again".

Go to the Mental Health Appeal page and enter the password into the “Inquire Today” box (you can use either the "Inquire Today" link or by clicking on the quote at the top of the screen.) You’ll see a computer monitor on a table in the background. The page flashes and the sound ‘crunches’ but each time the light comes up the monitor becomes a hotlink. Click on the monitor. The monitor becomes larger and the following letter covers the entire page:

“The VIK Institute

PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL

Dr. Armand Zander, M,D., PhD.
Director, The VIK Institute
870 Vik, ICELAND

Dr. Thomas Werner Mittlewerk
The Hanso Foundation
Orsund Klegvjiel 544
DK 1604 Copenhagen V Den-
mark

Dr Mittelwerk:

It is with profound anger that I submit this complaint. I understand The Hanso Foundation prides itself on experimentation and innovation – but what is going on in my own hospital has left me extremely confused about my mission.

I was recruited to the directorship of the Vik Institute with a promise that I would be given the cutting edge of technology for the benefit of my patients. Instead, I find myself prisoner in a hall of mirrors.

Day in and day out, new doctors not on my staff enter and exit the hospital. Last night, twenty of my autistic savant patients were administered secret proprietary memory tests without my consult or consent by doctors whom I have never seen before – and then there is, of course, the third sub-basement.

Never in my twenty years of treating the mentally ill have I seen the like. A secret ward containing patients who illness is unknown to the hospital’s director? It is, I regret to say, absurd and offensive.

I am responsible for the lives of hundreds of patients, but I cannot, in good conscience, take that responsibility if I am hamstrung by a secret program of experimentation taking place under my own nose.

The bottom line is, I expect a full account of the activities taking place in my hospital. If you are unable, or unwilling to comply, I may just be forced to tender my resignation.Regretfully yours,Armand Zander.”

Click on the letter and the following message displays on the computer screen:
“WELCOME…
CLICK HERE TO PLAY.”

Click on the computer screen and the following message appears.

“I WILL NOW PLAY A SEQUENCE OF SYMBOLS.
YOU WILL HAVE TO REMEMBER THIS SEQUENCE AND
PLAY IT BACK ONCE I FINISH.
GET AN EXTRA APOLLO BAR FROM YOUR INSTRUCTOR IF YOU
MANAGE TO REMEMBER MORE THAN 42 TURNS.

READY?”

Click READY? and…

Be prepared to spend a mindless hour or so typing hieroglyphic branded colors into the computer (if I ever hear my wife say purple again I don’t know what I’ll do). You get minor clues at the numbers (4,8,15,16,23, 42) until at 42 you get:

"Department of Heuristics and Research Material Applications"....D.H.A.R.M.A.

There is a bit of a delay during the loading of the Vik Institute letter when the computer name changes from DR. VIK to TOMMY//32 before the letter appears. Also, the buttons matching both the spacing of the clock in the hatch and the order in which the hieroglyphs appear when the numbers have not been entered plus the Apollo bar reference further reinforces the connection between the Dharma Initiative Lost fans are seeing on the island and the Hanso Foundation.

D. J. DAN PODCAST 06/13/06

Go to the D.J. Dan website and you will notice that a new podcast is up. Click on the 6/13 date. You will be taken to the Retrievers of Truth page. Dead end?!?

From the Electromagnetic picture clue we know to look at the radio tower on the cresent moon image. Click on it and this image on the D.J. Dan site and this image appears.

The file name is magiceye.jpg. From

http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4705/1056/1600/

If you stare at the image (the magic eye a.k.a. stereogram) long enough [another diversion!?!] you will see imbedded the word “conspira”. Add this to the word spies and “conspiraspies”, from the D.J. Dan webpage, becomes the clue for the ERI page.

Later this turned to a link at the following:
http://www.thehansofoundation.org/swf/extra/spies/
which gives us both parts of “conspiraspies”.


Next podcast coming on 6/16…

ELECTROMAGNETIC RESEARCH INITIATIVE 06/13/06

The ERI page has changed today. Click on the X:Y image to get the following…

A message from Persephone appears:
“This is Persephone…
Want to know more about this “Crucial Force”?
What’s the magic word?”
Enter “conspiraspies” (see D.J. Dan clue) to be taken to this page…
(Note that the X:Y image has a somewhat faded image of the tower from the D.J. Dan website imbedded within it. I've been told that by clicking on the word "offshore" it will take you to the D.J. Dan website but have been unable to reproduce this. Update: Click on the word "offshore" in the close-up view of the letter and you are redirected to the D.J. Dan site. All of the clues today interlock together. D.J. Dan links to ROT, ERI connects to D.J. Dan, etc.)



Click on the cassette tape for the image of a tower? or possibly a buoy? in the rain with a blipping light which I suspect is more Morse code. (We’ll try and decypher this later.)

Click on the tower to return back to the letter page.
Click on the piece of paper that has “# 8067” printed on it. This is a map that says, “Satellite Interference”.



Click on the image to return back to the letter page. The last document will now be clickable and reads “#AS815 – Unexplained Growth”. Click on the document. It enlarges but not much is available here to see. Click on the red circle and you will return to the letter page. The letter reads,

“…believe this is something we can both agree on…

Dr. Mittlework, in recent years my honorable government has turned a blind eye to the questionable activities of your off-shore research station due to the lucrative business partnerships the Hanso Group has offered the proud people of this nation. Your joint venture in the Paik Motors, for example, is a matter of great national pride, and we wish to continue doing that level of business with your firm.

However, I need to present my superiors with an accounting of your activities. Since the construction of your offshore antenna, we have had numerous disruptions in the local telecommunications infrastructure, the navigational systems of our fishing fleets and ever our ability to access our satellites from the area appear to have been impaired.

Additionally, we have begun to receive reports of deformed fish and other aberrant changes in the wildlife around your electromagnetic research facility. Given this, it is simply impossible for me to continue to tell my government that your research is outside of our national interest.

My influence in parliament is not unlimited. If this scandal over your off-shore antenna project reaches a national scale, I fear the Hanso Group’s fiduciary role will be severely crippled, and your multi-million dollar research venture may be forced into open international waters or even fired upon by naval units.

Consider this warning to be light in animus, but weighty in its urgency. I require a response within the next 48 hours, or I shall be forced to take up the matter with my superiors.

Regards,
(signature)
Hoo-Gon Choi
Ministry of (blotted out)”

IT EMERGES THE LOST
LESS TIME TO GET HER
MERGE THOSE TITLES
MERGE HOLES TEST IT

Timeless together: Timeless may mean a black hole (and we’ve seen plenty of holes in this game [mouse and otherwise]). There are two parts to a black hole, the event horizon and the singularity. Did our Lost survivors venture into/through/beyond a black hole, timeless and together? Also, if you enter “timeless together” into the subLYMONal submit box the voice says, “Perhaps this link is relevant, eternity.”

I also think that the Mental Health Appeal and/or Genomic Advancement page (or both) is being updated. And the font for “VIK Institute” has changed on the MHA page.

Mental Health Appeal – a drive for a better future

The Hanso Foundation's Mental Health Appeal is a world-spanning system of clinics seeking revolutionary new treatments. It is nothing short of a crusade to rid us all of the spectre of debilitating illnesses that truly hold hostage the human race's drive to a better future.

retrievers of TRUTH - VERIZON FORUM

Go to www.retrieversoftruth.com/ and click on the e-mail box. Enter "porter" from the Vincent Bole e-mail and you will end up at the Verizon Forum - retrievers of TRUTH.

Observations:


Notice how the Logo for this page is shaped to look like a telephone and that the same logo on the Retrievers of Truth page is shaped to look like a dog? Very clever manipulation of the same shaped logo. And P.S. I like the way this is going… twisting back towards the Lost series with some of the information lately (Vincent, Walt, Lloyd, Porter, Dharma shark, etc.) This is very good for the game and will certainly keep me entertained and interested.

Highlights from the site…


HOW IT STARTED
It looks like some employees over at Verizon were unhappy with the Hanso Foundation and created their own forum where they thought they could discuss things in secret. Obviously, that is untrue (in an unrealistic way). We have stumbled across this forum and are able to read the entries. The following is a brief description of the highlights of this forum and my thoughts and observations on the same.

THE ROT
I am not sure if this is a clue or not but THE ROT (which is an anagram for "The Other") may be important. Considering a lot of the early clues and such were figured out using ROT decoding. “Open up your eyes, throw off your tattered skepticism and read in... the TRUTH” There are 10 topics on the forum and I hope to highlight the important stuff from each one.

The topics are (with my observations included):

1. The gospel according to The DSL. Created by: DSLerator On: 6/07/06

The DSLerator wrote yesterday morning that his mother was a major influence on his life and that he or she had physical features identical to hers. He or she also had a twin brother who died. He also mentions that his father had no part in raising him or her. BroadBandBeatnik stated that there was a Japanese mouse (which is a wild mutant) around that has been through the maze so many times that it lost its purpose. The Laws of Nature are now working against mankind. This is the first intimation concerning parthenogenesis. iobiSeeingYou listed this website
http://www.richerdeeperbroader.com
which looks like advertising for Verizon (also where the password "parthenogenesis" was found in the source.). DSLerator stated that this group “seeks to unite with like-minded people out there to bring an end to the HANSO Foundation and their evil schemes.”

2. The media is their weapon of choice. Created by: iobiSeeingYou On:05/31/06

iobiSeeingYou talked about how Gary Troup was shining light on the foundation in Bad Twin and that Hugh McIntyre of the Hanso Foundation was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel and was the “Public Voice of Hanso”.

3. Hanso in da house!!!! Created by: DSLerator On: 05/24/06

This thread is composed of the group discussing Thomas Mittelwerk and how he was in their workplace on the 24th of May. He was also in their bosses’ office and snatched a folder from a shelf. Hmm…. It looks like this site: http://emri.perception.net/ may become an in-game site (or the forum guys are selling the fact that they may not be able to tell a red-herring from the real thing either.)

4. Man smart, monkey smarter. Created by: DSLerator On:05/17/06

This topic discusses the Hanso Foundation website, Joop and cloning. Also, one of the characters states, “FiOS is space age technology.” I understand that FiOS is a Verizon fiber optic internet and television technology. DSLerator also says, “The way things stand now with HANSO folks lurking around our offices, how can you be sure you are not developing programs for the talking monkey people?” Who are the talking monkey people??

5. You'd be amazed at what you can find if you look. Created by: Fiberoptician. On: 05/10/06

This forum shows the Verizon employees as players in the Lost Game (this is a very unique twist). Conversation: “I tried signing up for the Hanso newsletter... “ “Hehe. And did they send you their elaborate plans to take over the universe, complete with maps and dates?” “The site looked hacked & asked for a password.” “Try something in Korean.” “My password generator program has been at it for hours.” “…a girl breaks in to give you a password… BREAKING STRAIN.” “Do you think this could be a trap? She's got to have inside information. Maybe she is a spy for the Hanso people. I'd say proceed with caution.”

6. Pay no attention to that elephant in the room. Created by: DSLerator On: 05/3/06

Another conversation: “I'm getting tired of these Hanso people.” “Their projects are shady and I don't like whatever it is they are up to.” “What, you don't want to make Hanso Broadband for Dolphins®?” “Am I the only one that thinks Hanso is planning to use us and our technologies to further their schemes?!” “And I'm not handing over any codes to any droids.”

7. The dog ate my board work. Created by: DSLerator On: 04/30/06

It seems the guys at Verizon knew about the “dog site” well in advance of the rest of us players but were a week late in starting the game. Hmmm…. “ I'm totally hypnotized by the morphing logo.”

8. What are they trying to hide right under our noses. Created by: DSLerator On: 04/26/06

And “ Back to the Hanso site... did you check out that Alvar Hanso guy? What kind of an executive photo is this?” “So is this taken when he did jail time?” See the bars? “The man obviously doesn't want to be recognized... shady.” “And it's not just the photo. Some reliable water cooler sources have been hinting that all the big wigs are cashing in their stock options "just in case something happens".” “Better come up with something clever as a cover though.” “A password in Korean?” “A password in Inuktitut?” (which is a variety of Inuit language spoken in Canada) “That Hanso logo is a rip-off of a yin-yang symbol.” “Oh, I get it. They are Good and Evil. Very dramatic.” “Brush up on your Orwell. Peace=War, Good=Evil.” (George Orwell wrote 1984 about Big Brother) “I'd say that Yin is definitely hijacking the Yang in the Hanso version.” “If I was the Hanso foundation, I'd worry about my Feng-Shui.”

9. I have a very bad feeling about this. Created by: BroadBandBeatnik On: 04/19/06

“ Everybody else got that SOS about the Hanso Foundation or am I the only one on DSL's corporate spam list?” “That conspiracy theory you've been forwarding proves nothing. The Hanso people were just visiting the headquarters on tour. It was some PR photo op, man! You see Bill Gates kissing a baby, you think he's gonna start opening MS summer camps??? LOL” “Have you no idea who these people are?? They don't NEED any PR. They probably own every news network between here and Pluto! Second. Mittelwork doesn't just ride around on publicity tours. What is he doing glad-handing with our bosses??” ”This cloak and dagger stuff can be a buzz kill.” “He's got an overactive broadband.” “How about this for some fun? Now this...
www.andyfoulds.co.uk/amusement/economists.htm is art." (Strange but amusing!)

10. The revolution starts not with a bang but a whisper. Created by: DSLerator.On: 04/12/06

“…the board is up and running!” “What was up with the server earlier? Took me an hour to sign in. Fiber, you messing with the system again?” “Thank the Blackberry I'm here.” “But I bet with that toy you can't see the cool new black and red interface, huh?” “Ok, ok, your design skills are brilliant. We are all very impressed. I'll put in a word for you with Dolce & Gabbana.” “PFT... Not interested. I'm down with tech. Bring me your dysfunctional gadgets. I'll turn them into Fiber-robots.” “Geek.” “ Geek is the new Black... and Red.” “So then Wednesday is black and red from now on?” “Wednesdays it is then.”

Wednesdays indeed!!!! Look for updates to the entries on Wednesday. Almost, all the forum posts are done on that day.

Source code information and anagrams:
Interesting items found in the source code are "magic" and "normal"

"parthenogenesis" = "other pangenesis", "pentagon heiress", and "Stonhenge Paris"

D. J. DAN PODCAST 6/08

Go to the D.J. Dan website and click on the podcast archives link. Click on the 6/08 date and you will be sent to a monster.com page. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on the Podcast: "Shutting Down the Man" link with the following description: “Radio Announcer DJ Dan talks with listeners about genetic engineering and its impact on humanity's future.” This will open a new screen with the text below. Click on Listen here. to hear the podcast.

  • GeneticEngineering_Monster.mp3


  • “Podcast: "Shutting Down the Man"

    In this podcast, conspiracy-theorist DJ Dan describes the societal and environmental effects of genetic engineering, specifically examining The Hanso Foundation.

    The mega science corporations want us to believe that genetic engineering is all part of nature's master plan, and that they're bringing us a better future. But does shuffling around our DNA to make our unborn children have blue eyes instead of brown really mean a better future? DJ Dan argues these companies must realize there are consequences to their actions.”

    Transcription:

    Intro music

    Announcer: Coming to you live from the part of you that refuses to lie down.

    Singing: D. J. Dan

    Announcer: You’re listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the Man!

    D.J. Dan: No, no, no, no! Tonya. Darwinian evolution is a lie! Intelligent design is a bigger lie to make evolution look like even less of a lie! I’m sick of it and I’m shutting it down! Sarah from Cleveland, go!

    Sarah: Ah…. Hi D.J. Dan. Ah… I’m a fan, but, are you saying evolution is fake? Like, ah… birds don’t come from dinosaurs?

    D.J. Dan: No, I’m saying there’s more to it than that. That the mega-science corporations they want us to believe that the unnatural work they’re doing in genetic engineering is just part of ma natures master plan. Take the Hanso Foundation; if you’re a loyal listener Sam then you know I have issues with this bunch of crazy monkeys. Now I’m aware that some of the stuff we talk about on the show is a little fuzzy around the edges. But the Hanso Foundation, these guys are as real a threat as we’ve ever seen. I’ve been saying it for years, but now, the hacker Persephone, she’s serving us up a batch of proof puddin’. The Hanso Foundation, you’ve seen their ads, they’re bringing us a better future… science is going to save the world… blah, blah, blah, blah, blah! And I say, don’t believe it!

    Sarah: Oh… Why not?

    D.J. Dan: Why not? Definitely not because company founder Alvar Hanso, an arms dealer, with ties to the original atom bomb, refuses to release any true details about any of his programs. Oh, definitely not because they’re letch spokesman Hugh McIntyre refuses to say one word about they’re alleged human rights violations. No! Because every day we become more and more advanced. We get closer to the end. These Hanso Foundation perverts say they’re going to prevent. Genetic Engineering, you know what that is? Changing our DNA to give our babies blue eyes instead of brown or give them the know-how to juggle flaming bowling pins in the cradle. It’s all a lie! You know what happens when you start shuffling your genes around? No! Nobody does! But, I’ve seen those steroid cases, those guys whose growth plates have turned back on. They are Neanderthals! There are consequences to our actions, people. Don’t you see, they want us all to look the same. To be ashamed of who we are and where we’re from. Because once they’ve done that to us, once they’ve just let us give away our individuality, they’re going to swoop down out of the sky and take over without a fight. Yeah, we’ve got Lou from Chicago. Deep Dish Louie! Convince me otherwise! Come on!

    Lou: Hey, Dan. I think you’re over reacting.

    D.J. Dan. Um hmmmm.

    Lou: I mean look, I have a birthmark or two. One looks like a potato. And the other looks like Italy.

    D.J. Dan: The boot or Sardina?

    Lou: Actually, ah, Tuscany.

    D.J. Dan: Good one.

    Lou: But, I’ve always wished they could be more like tattoos. Couldn’t we play with the DNA and give our kids like some cool birthmarks?

    D.J. Dan: Whoa, whoa, whoa… what are you talking about? You mean like a family crest? A cute little bird? How about a barcode so they can keep track? Huh? Is that what you want?

    Lou: Yeah!

    D.J. Dan: Well, congrats Louie, you just made my top three DUMBEST THINGS I EVER HEARD!! Shutdown! Whose next?

    Richard: Richard, from Alexandria, Virginia.

    D.J. Dan: Tricky Dick from Alexandria.

    Richard: Listen Dan I heard what your last caller said about the tattoos and I think people are already doing that but with animals.

    D.J. Dan: Uh, what do you mean, Dick?

    Richard: I mean, I was diving off the Great Barrier Reef last year and we came upon this shark right. This things toast and on its tail is like, a tattoo, its like a black octagon with some word on it. It starts with a D. Things pretty rotted away.

    D.J. Dan: Dick, Dick, Dick, Dick, Dick, Dick, tell me you got pictures of that shark?

    Richard: Of course, I can send them right over.

    D.J. Dan: You know what I think, Dick, I think you’re Conspiraspy of the month! We gotta take a break more with ….

    Music

    Tonya: Wait a minute Dan. I’ve got a caller hear. Says he has to talk to you right now.

    D.J. Dan: Really? Well, what are you waiting for, Tonya? Put him back on. Come on! Caller you’re shutting down the man!

    Unidentified man: You’re going to want to be more careful, Dan!

    D.J. Dan: Uh, O.K. and who am I speaking with?

    Unidentified man: You think you can keep taking shots at the Hanso Foundation with no fear of retaliation?

    D.J. Dan: Uh, once again, who are you and why are you calling me?

    Unidentified man: You think you’re safe to smear good people because you broadcast from different locations like that 2nd floor motel room now off of the five freeway driving a green Jeep Compass license plate….

    D.J. Dan: Hey! Hey! Hey! Easy there little troll! Hey! What’s this about?

    Unidentified man: It’s about your fragile life. How easy it can be exposed… the way you expose others and…

    D.J. Dan: Now, now… come on… that’s enough, that’s enough…

    Unidentified man: How easy your address… and your real name… and where you really work!

    D.J. Dan: Hey! That’s enough…

    Unidentified man: And where your wife’s….

    D.J. Dan: THAT’S ENOUGH!!! Hey! You one of their goons? Is that what this is about? Well, you can tell your boss I ain’t backin’ down! This is not the first frustrating call I’ve gotten buddy, not by a long shot! My real name is D.J. Dan, my location is inside your web of lies, and my job is shutting you dow…..

    Unidentified man: Dan, you’ve been warned!

    D.J. Dan: Wow! Did you hear that, Tonya? I guess we’ve been warned. Well, that was special. If you didn’t thing there was proof before. There you have it folks! D.J. Dan, I guess I better name a successor.

    Announcer: You’re listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the man!

    Outro music

    Commercial announcer (ELO music background track): Right now, if you post your resume on Monster.com you’re twice as likely to land the job you’re looking for. Every day employers search Monster looking for talented, qualified people just like you. But they can only find you if you post your resume on Monster.

    PERSEPHONE’S COUNTDOWN

    Please note that there where three updates today!!!

    PERSEPHONE’S COUNTDOWN 000.000.000.000

    After Persephone’s countdown clock has reached zero the IGA page reverts back to its original form. There are some differences however. The images of cells are now glowing and there is a text box which can be found under the photo of the two people in the image. This is where I have a slight problem… it seems someone has given us a password of “parthenogenesis” which they state comes from putting various clues together and means reproduction without male fertilization. I find this explanation highly unlikely and continue to contend that someone inside the game is feeding answers to certain players. UPDATE: It seems the password "parthenogenesis" was actually found in the source code of the richerbroaderdeeper website which was buried in the Verizon forum. And I now feel better about it. Pardon my earlier skepticism. Also, if you do a google search for Japanese mouse and father which is another clue inside the Retrievers website the first few links contain the word "parthenogenesis" in the page descriptions.

    In any event, enter the password into the text box and you will be taken to the image of a person standing in a clearing in the forest/jungle. You can hear birds chirping in the background, see sunlight filtering down through the trees, and hear the soft sound of the surf in the distance. This person in the image is wearing a Dharma Initiative jacket or HAZMAT suit but the face cannot be discerned.

    If you click on the image of the person in the background another image will appear. This is an idyllic jungle scene (complete with floating insects) with jutting rocks on a beach seen in the distance. Presumably, this view is from the perspective of the person in the jungle in the first image.

    Click on the mage of the rocks in the background and a new image will appear.

    This looks like a close-up of the beach in the scene above. The difference is that there is a body of a dead shark on the beach here. The sound of ominous music is playing in the background and the sound of harder surf can be heard. Click on the image of the dead shark to continue.

    The following image will be displayed:

    Notice anything familiar. Does this resemble the image of the Dharma Shark from the D.J. Dan website? I think so. What is the image though? It does not look like a Swan to me. It resembles a palm tree more than anything else. However, I’m having trouble identifying the image myself. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Click on the Dharma image to continue back through to the IGA page.

    For those having trouble with the site you can view the island by clicking on the following:
    http://www.thehansofoundation.org/swf/extra/iga.swf
    (from the Speaker - Inside the Experience)

    Please note that if you hold your mouse over the shimmering cells at the top of the IGA page they spell out, "Retrievers of Truth."

    E-MAIL FROM DR. VINCENT “WALLY” BOLE

    I received an e-mail from Dr. Vincent “Wally” Bole (Newsletter-no-reply@retrieversoftruth.com) after signing up at the Retriever of Truth website. The transcription reads:

    “You're about to enter...

    First let's start this by saying, “thank you.”

    There's a word into which dreams can come true. This email is your gateway to that word and more that will open your mind and your consciousness.

    Imagine a field - a field of yellow... yellow labs running free, playful, and enjoying each other's company. But in their hearts they are not complete. They miss an integral part of their being and the thing that makes their existence complete. That one thing is the “word” for which we all search - mankind and labkind.

    But first a story.

    I was checking into a hotel and a dapper porter escorts me to my room. As we’re going up the elevator in total silence I decide to ask him his name. He replies, “Mandrake Wig” and immediately starts to explain the odd name, his German ancestry, and his mother's preoccupation with botany. He ends the story by saying, “my friends just call me Manny.”

    We continue talking about our lives, hopes, and dreams as I'm getting settled in my room. When he's done I offer a generous tip but he refuses saying, “Let me give you a tip, a single word that will enrich your life, as it has mine.” I accept.

    The next day I go to the front desk to leave a tip for Manny. They tell me no such person works there. I question everyone with no luck. I think about what he told me and write down his name so I don't forget it. As I write I see something in the letters. I rearrange a few and create the words, “waking dream.”

    The word he gave me that day was - YOU.

    Yours truly, Dr. Vincent “Wally” Bole”

    Observations concerning the e-mail:
    1. The word “world” is misspelled as word four times.
    2. Possible passwords for later: waking dream, porter, YOU, thank you, yellow lab
    3. Possible new character: Mandrake Wig (this may have been an elaborate way to pass on a password and may not be an “in-game” person at all.)
    4. Mandrake Wig anagram = “waking dream”
    5. Wally Bole anagram = “Yellow Lab”

    HANSO COMMERCIAL # 6 - RETRIEVERS OF TRUTH

    Retrievers of Truth

    A new Hanso Foundation commercial aired during an episode of Boston Legal on ABC last night and during the Lost re-run tonight. We’ve asked the question about dissemination of information before and it looks like we now know how they plan on sending us new updates and websites. My question though is, do we have to TiVo ABC on Tuesday and Wednesday nights now? The following is the website:

    http://www.retrieversoftruth.com/

    And a screen cap:

    Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé
    “His life was a hellish nightmare of neglectful parents, and a near fatal accident until a kindly yellow lab pranced into his life and change him... forever. “

    O.K. Here is where the whole thing gets really weird! Dr. Vincent “Wally” Bolé… On the LOST island the golden retriever is named Vincent and Walt is his owner. Vincent Wally….? Weird, huhh? To top it all off, in the season finale when the large foot with four toes is first seen Sayid states, “I don’t know what’s more disconcerting… the fact that the rest of the statue is missing or that it has only four toes.” Hmmm…. How many toes does a dog have???

    You can add your e-mail into the box at the top right of the page and it looks like they may send you more information (which remains to be seen). However, if you type any text into the field and hit enter or click on any of the links on the page you will be redirected to the following:

    Another Hacked Site??

    Clicking on any of the links on the Retrievers of Truth homepage will send you to the following:

    http://www.retrieversoftruth.com/Default.aspx

    which seems to be a website built by Verizon employees who are angry and disgruntled by the Hanso Foundation’s involvement in their company. (See update below – I can’t seem to reproduce the Verizon employee forum now and this site page reverts back to the Retrievers of Truth webpage.)

    “Subjugated by the Hanso Foundation”

    Retrievers of Truth Website

    ROT HOME

    Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé
    His life was a hellish nightmare of neglectful parents, and a near fatal accident until a kindly yellow lab pranced into his life and change him... forever.

    Bolé Repartee
    "Our best friends are indeed trying to tell us something."
    -- Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé, to the UN General Assembly

    "It's not just that they're trying to talk to us, they're also listening... intently."
    -- Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé, at a conference in Australia, 9/22/2005

    "The things that aren't said can be more important than those that are."
    -- Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé, to the members of Hanso Foundation, 9/21/05

    Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bolé is a pioneer in the field of canine parapsychology and neuroveterinary medicine at La Ville Du Chien Jaune Université (village of the yellow dog – The Alt 1) outside of Troisvierges (Three Virgins – The Alt 1), Luxemburg. (Luxembourg is spelled incorrectly - The Alt 1)

    The nickname Wally comes from the family's trusted Labrador Retriever who saved his life when, as a child, he fell into an abandoned well on the family estate. After this incident and because he had less-than attentive parents (his father was a near-famous neurosurgeon, his mother a saucier and the co-host of a little-watched TV show) he came to look to the dog as his surrogate parent. The bond that developed between them and a chance encounter with The Hanso Foundation CEO and founder, Alvar Hanso, at a life-extension workshop in Rangoon would inspire Dr. Bolé to expand his research and eventually create the Retrievers Of Truth Institute for the Advancement and Research into the Mental Abilities of Yellow Labrador Retrievers.

    Dr. Bolé has written several books on the subject of canine telepathy including, "Yellow dog, you know my mind," "Don't say fetch, think fetch," and "They may not speak but they say so much." Sadly, at this time all books are out-of-print.

    Friend. Companion. Soul mate. The yellow lab can read your mind. Hear you thoughts. Sense your pain. They can communicate without making a sound. Are you receptive?

    Lab history & notoriety
    Labs of all colors figure large in our history, celebrity, and have insinuated themselves into our very lives. Coincidence, I think not.

    History and NOTORIETY
    The Andrex Puppy - This precocious yellow lab is the iconic mascot for Kimberly-Clark's Andrex toilet paper brand in the UK.

    Buddy - Labrador of President William Jefferson Clinton. He once explained, "If you want a friend in Washington you have to get a dog." Buddy was killed by a car while running loose near the Clinton's NY home in 2002. He later received another Labrador named Seamus.

    Widgeon - Prince William's pet Labrador retriever aka The Royal Dog.

    Bouncer - The star of the Australian TV series Neighbours - the longest running drama in Australian television history - was hailed as the finest actor ever to grace the show.

    Harvey - The Labrador David "Son Of Sam" Berkowitz claimed "commanded him." He later shot the dog but it survived.

    This page should serve as your introduction to notable events and individuals without whom this site could not exist. It is all too real. 40,000BC – Cave paintings of light colored dogs are found near Ceci Est Tout Faux, (“this is very false”) France. Scrawl around imagery is translated: yellow dog warns us all. (Is this a clue??)

    1899 – A yellow Labrador is born to Black Lab mother in Australia. The Porter family, who owned the dog, insists it be burned as an abomination. He is saved by the child of a kindly servant named Lloyd.

    1903 – Lord Dilfer of Trent barely avoids death from an oncoming carriage. He later says he was warned by a friend, though he was accompanied by no one but his loyal yellow Labrador retriever.

    1938 – Vincent “Wally” Bole is born but not into greatness. That will be thrust upon him soon enough.

    1959 – The government’s secret testing and experimentation on Yellow Labs is leaked to the press by a clerk at the hidden facility in the Yellowstone National Park. He tells reporters he was ‘compelled’ to reveal the information.

    1991 – 12 homeless men sleeping beneath scaffolding of a building under construction in New York City’s east side escaped death before the scaffolding collapsed. When asked how they managed to get away without injury they told authorities that a yellow dog warned them. All were immediately committed.
    2001 – After extensive work with yellow labs I create The Retrievers of Truth.

    2006 – I launched ROT site to massive praise and overwhelming newsletter requests. Have you signed up?

    canine clairvoyance FACTS

    Yellow Labs, unlike any other breed of dog, have the power to "know us." And they do know us... intimately.

    They know our thoughts, our souls, and our minds.
    The yellow lab is a singular being put on this earth to enrich our lives and bring us to a better understanding of the world.

    The government knows this. Why do you think most US presidents own dogs?

    Secret Presidential "Breed Quality Life Enhancement" testing has been going on for years culminating with Buddy the chocolate Lab assigned to President William Jefferson Clinton.
    While not as highly tuned to our mental plane as their yellow brethren, Buddy proved to be a positive influence for a troubled President. Today, amongst the nations of the world, President Clinton remains one of our most respected former leaders.

    HOW IT STARTED
    We've discovered that our beloved company, Verizon, is being used by the Hanso Foundation to further their plans for global domination - think rebel alliance vs. evil empire. We couldn't just sit on the farm and not get involved. So we got... involved.

    THE ROT
    We didn't want this job. We tried to ignore what was happening. But we saw something no ones else seems to have noticed... yet. The devil is not in disguise, he walks among us. He is the Hanso Foundation and he wants nothing less than our very souls. So we packed up our apathy and climbed the nearest electronic rooftop and shouted. And this is our voice. Open up your eyes, throw off your tattered skepticism and read in... the TRUTH

    Another websites found in the messages:
    http://www.richerdeeperbroader.com/ which looks like a Verizon advertisement site.
    And this strange oddity:
    www.andyfoulds.co.uk/amusements/economists.htm

    And another important note: It seems that the Verizon page has been hidden from view. I am unable to redirect to it and now all the links actually connect to other pages. I will continue to monitor this situation and update as necessary. The above seems to have been during a webpage update. The forum can be accessed using the "porter" password.

    Also: found in the source code "magic" and "normal". Clues?? Passwords??

    PERSEPHONE'S COUNTDOWN

    It seems Persephone is going to make us standby a bit longer. On the Institute for Genomic Advancement there was a change today. The clock was not present and the word disease was underscored in light blue on the page. Clicking on the word brought up the following countdown timer (for a moment I thought it was the Hatch clock):

    The clock displays Days, Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and Miliseconds, which is interesting. Also, this may be the first time "in-game" we know exactly when we'll get our next clue, update, hack, etc.

    Clicking on the clock removes it from the screen and brings you back to the original IGA screen. It looks like we'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out what we are counting down to!

    The message reads:
    "Maybe it's cuz I'm on no sleep...
    Having trouble breaking through...
    I'm gonna need more time."

    DJ DAN PODCAST UPDATE

    Note: This probably doesn't mean much but the D.J. Dan information has changed at the Index of /usr/owelles Hanso Foundation Parent Directory.

    http://www.letyourcompassguideyou.com/usr/owelles/

    The file name has been changed to DJDan6-01-Pod and was last updated on 06-June-2006 at 12:09pm. Clicking on this no longer brings up the video. This is now an audio only file of the D.J. Dan podcast from June 1st. Also, the name of the file when opened up is DJDan101_Jeep and does not match the file name DJDan6-01-Pod in the directory. I'm not sure if it means anything but we will continue to monitor it.

    PERSEPHONE PAGE UPDATE

    The calm before the storm...

    Persephone's page has changed again today. There is no message in the page (it is blank) but the source code states "Standby!" Looks like we'll have a new message soon!

    THE HACKED D.J. DAN PODCAST

    Breakdown of Images from D.J. Dan (Hacked) Podcast / Video 06/01/2006

    The following is my breakdown and analysis of the hacked D.J. Dan podcast from 06/01/06. This may or may not be important but there was little going on “in-game” this past weekend so I thought I’d gather what information I could and present my observations here for others to review. I believe that this was supposed to be a simple podcast but was hacked by someone and turned into a video assault on D.J. Dan. The hacker may or may not have been Persephone. It bears clues that perhaps she is behind the hacking (see image of painting by Rossetti). The video/podcast is 4 minutes and 53 seconds in length and contains over 350 image repetitions using only 52 different images. The images are listed below (you’ll know them by the descriptions – you’ve seen most of them before.) I have not bothered to build a complete list of all the images in order as this can be found in different forms on many of the Lost Experience forums.

    List of images (number of occurrences) and notes:

    1. Text “BIG, FAT, STUPID SELL OUT.” (1)
    O.K., I think we get the picture… Someone has hacked the D.J. Dan website and substituted their own form of electronic vandalism. Do we get it yet that D. J. Dan is not all he purports to be? The text messages that were inserted into this video-cast appear only once (except for the phrase “sell out” which occurs in a number of different ways.)

    2. www.DJDan.am introduction page (10)
    Flashing this image right behind the text above is obviously pointing to the fact that D.J. Dan is the BFS “Sell Out”, which is found here and in many subsequent images in various forms.

    3. Area 51 Satellite view with notes in red ink (7)
    Alvar Hanso made his fortune in weapons… was he a part of the Area 51 and Rosebud UFO incidents? There is (or has been) a lot of activity in this area but who made the notes?

    4. Satellite view of facility (airport?) (3)
    Also, Area 51?

    5. Text “!SHUTDOWN!” from D.J. Dan website (9)

    6. Male symbol (3)
    Also the symbol for Mars – The Man? With the above message, “Shut down the man!”?

    7. Text "fraud." (1)
    Again, pointing at D.J. Dan.

    8. Text "tanya isn't there." (1)
    I find it interesting that Tanya here is misspelled. The original DJ Dan websites gives her name as “Tonya Jefferson.”

    9. Stylized dollar symbol (33)
    The dollar sign shows up many times in the video. I’m having trouble pinpointing the reason. Is D.J. Dan being paid off? The Hanso Foundation does not seem to follow this type of strategy, as they are more apt to kill then pay someone off (our newspaperman gave us this bit of information). And the dollar sign shows up with the image of young Joop a number of times. Was this a clue as to the password in the Joop text box? Or that it cost a great deal to keep Joop alive for 105 years?

    10. Image of woman with an apple? in hand (1)
    This image has been revealed as the painting of “Persephona” by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and the original can be found in the Tate Gallery in England. Persephone is holding a pomegranate.

    11. Organ Courier page from Hansocareers website (1)
    This may have something to do with the “Missing Organs” clue. We’ll keep an open mind and eye on this to see if it develops.

    12. Text "wonder who pays DJ Dan's bills?" (1)
    Another blatant warning that D.J. Dan is working for the MAN? I am not sure why they felt it necessary to throw this at us so many times? I wonder if perhaps the reason this is repeated so often is that we have missed an important clue and they want us to back track and look at it again so as to not miss it?

    13.Grainy image of Adidas bag full of money on a bed (1)
    This is definitely a payoff of some type or another. But to whom?

    14. memo2.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (4)
    Daimler/Chrysler rescinding of contract with the Hanso Foundation to purchase 23 Jeeps. Why did this deal go sour? Soemthing occurred that cause Daimler/Chrysler to pull out from this contract but what?

    15. Image from the letyourcompassguideyou.com entry from LostPedia webpage (1) The address for this page is: http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/Letyourcompassguideyou.com

    16. The Great Seal of the United States (21)
    This symbol is also associated with the Illuminatus and is sometimes known as the all-seeing-eye in pyramid. This image is interspersed with the satellite image over Africa.

    17. Satellite image of Earth above Africa (21)
    This image is interspersed with The Great Seal of the United States above and has been reported as being centered on the Mozambique Channel near Inharrime, Mozambique.

    18. Image of UFO with caption “Redbud, Illinois, April 23, 1950” (1)
    Alvar Hanso made his fortune in weapons… was he a part of the Area 51 and Rosebud UFO incidents?

    19. Topographical map marked “Top Secret” (1)
    The top secret file with topographical markins is dated May 20, 1967.

    20. Text "sell out." (1)

    21. Image of text “Jeep” with trademark (12)

    22. Compass from www.letyourcompassguideyou.com website (3)
    108 degrees takes us to the Hanso Parent Directory. I’m still waiting for the 325 degrees on this page to take us somewhere. If you recall, Henry Gale told Michael to set his boat heading to 325 degrees and he would be rescued.

    23. Old? Sprite logo (10)
    I’m not sure if this logo is an old one or a new one but it feels retro to me.

    24. www.sublymonal.com website image (6)
    This page has gone through at least three versions since the game began. The “Heir Apparent” clue site, the videos site, and now the Wikipedia connection site (lots of new submissions will work – watch the rotating televisions) which are mostly connected to entries on the Wikipedia website.

    25. Stylized monster.com logo (image of monster) (8)
    Other than the Hanso Careers page, do we know the connection between Hanso and Monster.com? We have seen a great deal of web pages, clues, etc. that incorporate Jeep and Sprite into the game. But where is the monster.com page that should connect to the game?

    26. Green moneybag with dollar symbol (flashing) (29)
    Money, money, money, money….. money!

    27. Satellite map of Daimler/Chrysler plant, Ann Arbor Michigan (7)
    The cross-like structure in the satellite image is that of the Chrysler building, but why all the different images of it? We know they make Jeep, but why the various images of this building? This image is always shown in progression with the following two images.

    28. Second satellite image of Daimler/Chrysler plant slightly closer (7)
    29. Close-up view (slightly shifted) of Daimler/Chrysler plant (7)

    30. rfp0000.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (4)
    This is the Hanso Foundation “Request for Proposal” to purchase 23 new Jeeps from Daimler/Chrysler. I am not sure why they felt it necessary to throw this at us so many times? I wonder if perhaps the reason this is repeated so often is that we have missed an important clue and they want us to back track and look at it again so as to not miss it? Obviously, these documents may hold more significance then we initially gave them credit for? Why are these so prominent in the hacked video?

    31. rfp0001.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (5)
    32. rfp0002.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (5)
    33. rfp0003.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (5)
    34. rfp0004.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (8)
    35. rfp0005.png file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (7)

    36. 2007 Jeep Compass (exterior - front view) (7)
    Has anyone purchased a Jeep Compass yet? After being buried under all the hype and commercials you’d think everyone playing the game ran out and bought one. D.J. Dan has one – why don’t you?

    37. 2007 Jeep Compass (exterior – rear view with back door open) (7)
    38. 2007 Jeep Compass (interior – cockpit view) (7)
    39. 2007 Jeep Compass (interior – gear shift view) (7)

    40. Peter Thompson signature from GWC clue (7)
    See the two versions of this signature below.

    41. Text “change the subject danny boy.” (1)
    Is this because he does change the subject a lot or that we should be listening closely to what he is discussing when this text is on the screen?

    42. fleetcontract2.jpg file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (7)
    43. fleetcontract1.jpg file Jeep document from Peter Thompson’s mail folder (11)

    44. Lab worker in laboratory with computer and test tubes (10)
    A member of the Dharma Initiative?

    45. CJ7 Hatch image “OCHO ME UTEP HIT” The Mouth Piece (9)

    46. CJ7 Hatch image with anagram spelled out arrows to letters (8)
    This looks like someone was manually trying to do the anagram for “The Mouth Piece” by connecting letters to the words.

    47. Buddha “The Mouth Piece” image from old Jeep advertisement (9)

    48. Young Joop from Joop’s Corner Hanso Foundation webpage (21)
    This image was always interspersed every other time in quick flashes with the green money bag with the dollar sign on it. Was this a clue as to the password in the Joop text box? Or that it cost a great deal to keep Joop alive for 105 years?

    49. Text “ blah blah blah blah blah blah blah” (1)

    50. Text “SELL” (6)
    51. Text “OUT” (6)

    52. Joop from webcam of Joop’s Corner from Hanso Foundation website (1)
    The docile Joop not the angry one!

    D.J. DAN, D20 CLUE & RSS FEED UPDATES

    There was a lot of activity today and a lot to assimilate. Starting with a new podcast by D.J. Dan then a new clue from Hole3 and ending with an RSS FEED Update (which, of course, corresponds with every new update to the Hanso Foundation webpage.)

    June 1st, 2006

    D.J. Dan Podcast for 06/01

    Go to the D.J. Dan website (see sidebar) and click on the podcast for 06/01. You will be taken to the compass page once again (seems like they are recycling websites like we do aluminum cans). Click on the 108 degrees, answer "Do you believe?" with a "Y" and you will be taken to the Parent Directory of the Hanso Foundation. Find the owelles user and the following files will now be accessible.

    Index of /usr/owelles
    Parent Directory
    tel_soul.mov 01-June-2006 12:09 33
    B/0/0/G/10/5/5/16/3/15/13/16/1/19/19 01-June-2006 12:09 33

    It is not surprising to me that the D.J. Dan podcast was found in the owelles folder. Orson Welles hoodwinked the entire nation on October 30th, 1938 with his broadcast of "War of the Worlds." Which, in my estimation was the very first Viral Marketing campaign and the precursor to Reality Games. How to get more ratings for a radio show? Write a ficitonal screenplay with elements of terror and pass it off as reality!

    The tel_soul.mov (tel_soul is an anagram for "sell out") displays many images we have already seen. The video almost seems counter to D.J. Dan's message though as it shuffles through phrases like, "Big, fat, stupid sellout!", "Fraud.", "tanya isn't there.", "wonder who pays d.j. dan's bills?", "sell out.", "change the subject danny boy", "blah blah blah blah blah blah blah", "sell", "out", and "sell out", etc. interspersed amongst conspiracy images and commercials. Perhaps someone has hacked the D.J. Dan podcast?

    The following D.J. Dan 06/01 podcast (as transcribed) can be heard:

    Intro music

    Announcer: Coming to you live from Area 51.

    Singing: D.J. Dan.

    Announcer: You’re listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the man.

    D.J. Dan: Milton from Fresno, just tell me your not still there.

    Milton: I’m still here, D.J. Dan.

    D.J. Dan: Tonya, you’re fired.

    Tonya: I’ll leave when you start paying me.

    D.J. Dan: Oh, ho… Tonya. O.K. Milty, what, ah, before I kick you off what were you saying?

    Milton: I was saying, I think that Persephone is just some hacker from one of the Hanso Foundations’ competitors.

    D.J. Dan: Oh! So you, ah, think the Hanso Foundation is what, some kind of innocent victim in all this? Milton: No, no, I’m just saying, how do you know they’ve done anything wrong?

    D.J. Dan: How do I know? How do you know you want to stay away from the business end of a skunk, Milty? How do you know if Mrs. Withers is going to hand out pennies every Halloween? You just do! Shutdown! Time for D.J. Dan 101. Don’t you get it people? The Hanso Foundation and their competitors, they are the man! And the man don’t hack the man! Its simple folks, all the man wants is for you to keep quiet and keep kicking your hard earned wages to him and his ruling class cronies. And I’m not talking about corporations and governments. I’m talking about global mega-corporations, meta-governments, people whose scope goes beyond nations, beyond planets. Don’t you see, if they can control what you think, what you feel, what you see, then they can do anything they want. They are hiding the truth because they know if we knew what they knew we’d shut ‘em down! So they keep us busy doing nothing. Thornton from Seattle, go ahead.

    Thornton: I don’t get it D.J. Dan. How can you talk about the man when you’re the biggest corporate sellout of all? Your website is covered in ads from Jeep and Sprite…

    D.J. Dan: … and Monster dot com. So what? If you ask me sponsors are a pretty small concession to make for my voice to be heard. I mean, who says I have to wear a sack cloth and walk around barefoot to fight the man? Huh?

    Thornton: These aren’t mom and pop stores you’re endorsing Dan, you’ve got…

    D.J. Dan: Whoa, whoa, whoa… Sprite’s a competitor! These days there's more beverages than ever. So why do I like Sprite? ‘Cause its delicious. ‘Cause I like Lymon. Just saying it makes me feel cool. And what’s wrong with helping American’s get jobs? How do you think I got this job? Monster dot com! That’s what the Internet is good for Conspriaspys, finding loonies like me to appeal to the hearts and minds of loonies like you. And my Jeep? I love my Jeep Compass. Do I ever go off road? No! But, do I live with a sense of security knowing my four wheel Jeep Compass will get me and my family to safety when the bombs fall and the highways buckle? You bet your Agnew I do! But enough of that… As long as we are teaching D. J. Dan 101 lets talk about something else. So, I go to the old mailbag this morning and I find a letter from Jessica in Reno, Nevada. And I quote, “I listen to your show on rapid weight loss D.J. Dan and I don’t understand why you hate science so much."

    Tonya: Oh, snap!

    D.J. Dan: Oh, snap, indeed, Tonya! How many times do I have to repeat… I do not hate science. Its science that lets me broadcast from the road moving from secret location to secret location with only my laptop and the wind in my, um, scalp. My trusty mic and of course Tonya who Lord knows is a wonder of science herself.

    Tonya: It’s called the gym, D.J. Dan.

    D.J. Dan: No Tonya, it’s you versus gravity. According to routines established by scientists who understand the mechanics of the human body and what a body it is Tonya.

    Tonya: Ah, shucks, D.J. Dan.

    D.J. Dan: However, if science offered me a way to look like Tonya with just a snip of the genes, a wave of the scalpel? Would I take that offer? No! No way! And trust me, ask my wife, she’d much rather have Tonya coming home to her than me. She says I walk heavy.

    Tonya: Get carpet!

    D.J. Dan: That is with carpet! Look. You see Tonya, the man, he’s like the Hanso Foundation. They’ve made us think that science and technology is the answer to every single one of our problems. Just push a button. It’ll be o.k. But it won’t be o.k. Jessica, to answer your question, I don’t hate science… I’m afraid of science! I’m afraid of the consequences of a science that moves so fast that we don’t have a chance to stop and think and analyze what’s going on. We have blind faith in the people who already have rendered the product we purchased five minutes ago by rendering it obsolete by introducing version two point oh three minutes ago. So if I get that surgery and gene therapy and walk out looking like Tonya, do they care if I melt into a hoodwinked puddle in three weeks. No! ‘cause I’m lost! I’m a corporate recall. An intermediary step between Tonya and a disco trip-hop remix. And why? ‘Cause I stopped asking questions! This is D.J. Dan making way for his hotter, younger replacement D.J. Dave.

    Announcer: You’re listening to D.J. Dan. Shutting down the man!

    Outro Music

    The segment ends with a 30 second Jeep Compass commercial.

    The file B/0/0/G/10/5/5/16/3/15/13/16/1/19/19 directs you to the Jeep Compass commercial at http://www.jeep.com/07compass/. The file name spells out: “2007 Jeep Compass” (using standard simple alpha replacement.)

    Worldwide Wellness and Prevention Development Program

    Go to the Worldwide Wellness and Prevention Development Program
    section of the Hanso Foundation website for a new update. Click on the Press Release. Then click the world “miracle” to bring up a text box requiring a password. Go to the Persephone page to find the newest rendition of the 2nd faceless man at the hole3.thehansofoundation.org. Under the right eye of the image is “D20”.

    This is a reference to deutrium oxide which is sometimes known as heavy water. The “heavy water” reference can also found on the Blast Door Map in the episode entitled “?” of Lost. The password then to the “miracle” submit box on the WWPDP page is "heavy water". Miracle anagrams include "I'm clear, reclaim or claimer."
    Another message from Persephone will appear.

    “Free hospitals in the third world?
    Wow! That’s nifty…
    Ever wonder what the foundation does in these hospitals?”

    Click on the screen and a number of microfilm slides will appear on a reader from the Cape Town Inquisitor.
    “Index 1432/01
    Cape Town Inquisitor 1/26
    Partially {edited}”

    Clicking (holding) and turning the left hand knob of the machine reveals a number of empty pages down. Clicking (holding) the right hand knob reveals a number of empty pages to the right.

    Scroll down and right until you find a page from the newspaper.
    Interesting articles, huhh….. and Published by A. Hanso Group Publications.
    (Note: It occurs to me that the A. Hanso Group Publications means that the Hanso Foundation has its own publication company. The unknown newspaper man that talks to Persephone on the phone (see transcript below) is telling the truth then concerning the purchasing of entire newspapers, etc. Could he also be telling the truth about the dead reporter?)

    Click on the yellow highlight and a phone on the desk rings… click on the ringing phone (blinking red lights in the background) and the following audio file conversation is heard:

    “Man: ... retraction... I was forced to make it. They bought the paper that same day.

    Persephone: The Hanso Group did?

    Man: I’ll swear on any Bible. They bought up my newspaper to cover up what they did to those people. Now nobody will talk. I’m going crazy here. I’m going to lose my job. I did a little digging. The same thing happened at a hospital last year. Another one of those Hanso Foundation hospitals. The reporter that did that story, he died in a car crash. Yes sir, some car crash. Man, I wish I’d never heard of these Hanso people. They’re sharks. That’s what they are.

    Persephone: Have any Hanso executives gotten in touch with you?

    Man: Look, what’s your name again?

    Persephone: You can just call me Persephone.

    Man: Yeah, yeah look Persephone I, I gotta go…”

    Click on the “Go Back” tag to exit.

    Note:We're guessing that the reporter talking to Persephone here is the same that wrote the retraction from the Cape Town Inquisitor below.

    If you continue to browse in the microfilm you will eventually come to the following screen. You can highlight the text and see what the message reveals.

    “Persephone, if you can read this, I know who you are!”
    (Who is the person in the background of this image who seems to know Persephone's identity?)

    The Newspaper Articles

    Cape Town Inquisitor South Africa - Friday, 26th, May 2006

    Hospital Raid (cont’d from page one)

    Some of the patients found with missing organs were in a comatose state – kept alive by heart/lung and dialysis machines. Police investigators have also reported the discovery of a “chilling room” in which recently-deceased bodies were kept just above the freezing point. According to eyewitnesses, industrial quantities of Vialex – a pharmaceutical agent for the preservation of organs for transport – were also discovered along with several lots of am as-yet-to-be-determined chemical marked “experimental,” The hospital – which has ties to the Hanso Foundation – denies all accusations of illegal experimentation and organ harvesting, a growing problem in the developing world, but for the families of the victims, the nightmare is worse than any of the charges.

    “They told us our son died on the operating table,” remarked one of the victims’ parents on condition of anonymity. “To find him kept alive by artificial means, his organs taken away, is a nightmare… it’s hell on Earth.”

    Photo of x-ray lungs from the Institute of Genomic Advancement on the Hanso page. The caption reads, “Organ harvesting.”

    Photo of blindfolded woman with three balls on a table. Caption reads, “Early examples of psychological tests at Hanso.”

    (Note: I could not find reference to Vialex as a pharmaceutical using Google search. Does it even exist?)

    Cape Town Inquisitor A. Hanso Group Publications – Monday, 28th May, 2006

    RETRACTION.
    In Tuesday’s article, “Hospital Rail Reveals Illegal Organ Harvest Program,” we erroneously implied that the Hanso Foundation has ties to a local hospital accused of allegedly harvesting organs for transplant. The Hanso Foundation issued a statement today assuring that “while the hospital in question was, indeed, founded with a generous grant from the Hanso Foundation, the hospital has long since passed into private ownership. We would never allow such atrocity to take place on our watch.”

    The Alternative One: It looks like someone was doing immediate and quite convincing damage control two days after the initial reports. Probably the work of Hugh McIntyre.

    “Greatest Fire in Towns History Causing Loss of R10,000,000.
    Half a dozen volunteer firefighters from neighboring towns were called to assist the bloemfontein firefighters in containing the blaze, which began around 4:30 a.m. and burned out of control for nearly 14 hours. No one was injured, the cause of the fire was not immediately determined.
    Bush fire started at 4:30”

    The Alternative One again: Seems like some one was trying to destroy the evidence? It does not say what, if anything, was destroyed by the fire but it caused R10,000,000 in damage. Curious…. Also, Bloemfontein is a city in South Africa which means "Spring of Flowers." There are at least three hospitals in the city: National, Universitas and Pelonomi Hospitals.

    Photo of Joop from Joop’s Corner on Hanso Foundation website. The caption reads, “The Foundation’s 105 year old Orangutan.

    Photo from the Life Extension Project page. The caption reads, “Dr. Amy Honale of the Hanso Foundation.”

    Photo from the Worldwide Wellness Prevention and Development Program. The caption reads, “WWPDP Development Program.

    (Note: Dr. Amy Honale is a new character in the game. We have seen her before on the Life Extension Page of the Hanso site but she is not identified there. It seems her name is perfect for an anagram but I have yet to find anything out of it that makes any sense to me. Anyone have any anagrams that make sense? Found one - A HOLY NAME. St. Sebastian?)
