I've been away since Tuesday, odvously I've missed a lot again What has happened since Tuesday, and what are we working on now?

a theta torn I miss to reap

Uh-oh.

2nd anagram: a theta torn I miss to reap

I've got results like "The poison is" I'm trying to get the rest to match up but it's not working but I really don't like the fact poison could be there at all.

Worked on the 3rd anagram earlier and got variations with things like "I AM STEVE/JEFF" and left more room for words like help and talk. I'm having some trouble with insomnia so I'm up but I think I'm so brain dead that if the anagram jumped out my screen and slapped me, I still wouldn't see it.

no no punctuation... just the capital letters..

This tool might help

If you remove "jeff" and "steve" it says "I am the kill tape"... coincidence?

another one? "So I impersonate that rat." who knows? too sleepy.

tape,

[yellowcard]

Code:

3 1 11   2 36  14  3 -1 2 38  23 49 -15 -1

I like the way you lined these up. I see a lot of perfect squares in there.
36 => 6
49 => 7
11+38=49 => 7
2+23=25 => 5
-1 => i

[/cue music to: Close Encounters of the Third Kind]

Surely this means something.


EDIT: For whatever reason, I've decided to list the square roots of each column totaled:

1.414214, 1.732051, 7, 5, 9.219544, i, 1.414214

Sorry guys, I just flew home for the holidays so I won't be around much. Great job everyone!

My first thought when I saw the obit was that it looked like Jeff. But I guess it's not. I don't remember a lot of what Steve looked like but what I do remember is NOTHING like the guy in the picture. If anything I thought he looked a bit like this guy(I hope "Steve" doesn't mind the comparison):

Great find.. Here is steve's lates cryptic emails to make it easier to find anagrams from them...
- I vow you slow chest death. I sine Leo.
- a theta torn I miss to reap
- it Save me the tape kill Jeff

Okay, so I'm looking at the code from the /mail page, what's underneath Steve's obituary. I rearranged the numbers to look like this, for mere convenience...

Code:

3 1 11   2 36  14  3 -1 2 38  23 49 -15 -1

Notice that the first and last number of each line are the same. I'm really pathetic at codebreaking, so I'll just stop here. Plus it's getting late for me. Good luck if anyone can get it! Kind of looks like a phone number(s) to me.

The way I interpreted it is that Jeff is not really Jeff, he's Steven Chalmers who supposedly died a year ago, and whoever he thinks is Steve is one of the "bad guys", possible sni or JB.

I never saw Steve's face from the old blog vid and it's gone now unless someone still has it. Jeff has a bigger...girth I think. (Please Holy FSM, I hope "Jeff" never comes here, I feel mean for saying that.) I'm going to go back to the vids we have and take a closer look. Nose and ear size are key if anyone wants to squint with me.

Hand size would be good too, but Steve has his hands in his pockets, which is a shame because Jeff's hands are very identifiable. The marsh video has lots of close up on the hands.

Edit: I've done a bit of comparing, I don't think they are the same person but damn they could be brothers. Steve's ears stick out a bit more than Jeff's, the nose is similar but Jeff's is a bit bigger are seems to flare more. Now that I have insulted Jeff twice in this post, I'm going to go write an apology letter to be sent after all this is done. =/

I don't believe that's a picture of Jeff. As I have never seen Steve, I can't say if it's a picture of him or not.
