Finding these interesting.

Just because I was bored, I analyzed the sound spectrum of the holomove music - between 10,000hz and 12,100 hz there's what I would describe as a trough of sound.
Between 10,000 and 10,550hz there's higher decibel, and between 11,600 and 12,100 there's a similar higher decibel, and between the two is virtually silence. I'll include a pic of all the fun.
If I had to guess, its supposed to resemble lettering but it will take more time to figure out a good setting to display it.

More searching. I reply back with "Dr. Emmet Leith" and "lasers." This was pretty much the last puzzle I was going to solve. After that, I finally got the "send us your resume" and the next day I got a call. How's that for a pre-screener? Crazy, right? And I've been hearing about some developer challenge in the works so I bet these guys aren't done. They are trying to out Microsoft Microsoft and out Google Google.
It sounds like we're going to have some serious hoops to jump through before any of us can get our sweet Holomove jobs.

So excited to open the package and realize it's a trailhead.
Rush to uF and find it already has a thread (of course, duh).
So disappointed that my scan is virtually worthless (at least I waited instead of the requisite photos of the package contents).
However, I am still going to supply my version of the scan (cause someone might want to put this in a wiki someday) AND make a note of something interesting: the package was addressed to my REAL Name (not the one I use for ARGs). Hmmm......

I edited my post abit, included the craigslist posts i could find, and they have one in the new york times, anyways, i haven't got a package, but i haven't been involved in ARGs lately either, so all's fair.

I also got UPSed today with all the same stuff tucked inside. I can scan if need be, but the scanner is all the way over there -------> and I'm all the way over here <------ and it's just SOOOOO inconvenient to move
(I'll scan if necessary, but it doesn't sound super necessary?)

They have craigslist postings for Holomove jobs from back in March. And Nathan has a bunch of different sites out there, so they are definitely trying to make this realistic.
