I am not getting much that looks like it is involved with the game when searching for Ernie Blankenship, Sgt Ernie Blankenship and so on.
I am however, not being completely shot down by Sgt Ernie...

Like I said before I waited 35 years til now and I can outwait these bastards as long as I need to if it means exposing what we did and finally getting a full goddam night sleep.

Hey Sarge,
I hadn't heard from you in a couple days. I hope you are doing well and not had any un-welcome visitors.We still have a couple options: one of my friends is willing to get on a bird heading to Denver and meet you face to face. That window is closing rapidly as he has other work related commitments. The other option is I have to men traveling cross country.I might be able to convince them to detour to Denver. They are much like yourself seeking to avoid "Federal" involvement if you know what I mean.
We have gone through great lengths to even get in contact with you. Our mutual friends Val and Klinton seam to beleive that this information needs to be shared. Hopfully you share their ideals. Sgt, there have already been several casulties along the way. I hope to prevent more and possibly something even bigger from happening.

Hmmm by the tweets, they are only a few hours away from me.. like as in three hours away if they are holed up in youngstown.

Maybe we need to convince Dr.Starr to make a detour to Denver. Obviously Sarge isn't going to let us get that information unless someone shows up.

Sarge is not going to share anything it seems, he shot me down again in another email, saying hes shared all he is going to until its face to face.
@classical is klockworkalex ports twitter? Sorry ive lost so many things , it gets confusing?
I guess well have to wait for Port and Starr to get to Sarge?
Yeah, I got essentially the same thing from him.
And yes, that's Port's Twitter finally. It's odd really, that Rage isn't following him, considering he's concerned about his whereabouts - and went the distance to get him a trackable netbook.
And last I saw from Port - they weren't going to stop in Colorado. Something about Starr not considering this a "sight-seeing" trip. But I suppose if Rage wants to find Port, all he has to do is wait at Starr's house, as Port put that pretty plainly in one of his tweets...

Port is adorable, guys.

Courtney,
I snuck down to the hotel "executive lounge" (fancy name for a sticky public computer) to send you a quick e-mail. More than anything I wanted to read what you had written again a couple of days ago. About believing in me and understanding me. Before this is all over, I will respond to that because you really seem to get me. Not the crazy-me. Not the cop-me. Not the on-the-run-from-I don't-know-who me. But the Port that I was back before life happened, you know? Back when I still had dreams and wanted to make an impact on the world around me in a good, fun way. Back when I was an artist. Like you. An artist searching for the right audience.
Never give up like I did, Courtney. Those assholes in my film class won, you know. I let them beat me by choosing to get out of their world. And deep down, below everything else that I struggle with, I still feel the sting of that defeat. It was my dream.
I almost called you Court for short, and it reminded me of Bud Cort who was in that old movie "Harold & Maude". About that kid who tries to get his mother's attention by pretending to kill himself all of the time. I loved the Cat Stevens soundtrack on that movie. Have you seen it?
I'm rambling and better go to sleep. Besides...my $5 is about up in the old rent-a-computer.
Take care.
Port
Of course, I think sending that email compromised his position. That was sent last night around one in the morning, and these are as of half an hour ago:

I DIDN'T DO IT I SWEAR /sob

A few more emails from Sarge... GD he's a tough one - lol
Read from the bottom of the quote UP - so that you can read them in order..

Goddam I'm suprised your still sucking air with you throwing all that knowledge around without a care of who sees it!!! Son, what I got you ain't ever gonna find on a goddam google search I can tell you that much. Now if I was you I'd stop talking and fast.

Ernie -
I think I understand what you're getting at, and frankly I don't know what to say. I can't imagine what you went through, so I won't begin to pretend to understand. But I think you're right, in that it's time to get this story told. I'll do my best not to get depressed OR suicidal, I'll be careful.
But you also haven't told me anything really specific yet, that might convince someone else that I'm suicidal. I've done a couple of quick searches of those hospitals, and I'm guessing you wont' be surprised when I say there wasn't really any mention of anything like what you're describing.
Does this have to do with Black Beauty?

To be honest, I'm a bit confused as to what information he thinks he's given me at this point. A vague reference to something worse than Agent Orange, the name of 2 military hospitals - and....? DarkWings did the search for Miley and Letterman on Google - and it didn't turn up much. Sarge even said that Google wasn't going to return anything that he was talking about. Looks like I'm gonna have to be a bit more straightforward with this guy...
==edit==
He still wants a face to face eh? I'm willing - and able. The only thing that'll stop me, is having to be out of town for work. I leave Monday for Springfield, MO - and the Monday after that I leave for Columbus, OH. I just need a few days advance notice so I can book a trip - unless he's willing to meet me somewhere in the middle..
Seems he and Starr are having themselves a cross-country roadtrip. Perhaps we can get them to detour to Colorado, eh?

I emailed Sarge about miely and letterman
Wulf shared with me your email. Both Miley and Letterman were in the San Francisco area. Miley had a research center built in 1967. As far as I can tell Letterman was just a general hospital. Were you at Miley? or was it just stories you heard?. Do you know what was happening to" those poor bastards?"
His reply:
Check out the brain on John!!! Your goddam right that Letterman and Fort Miley were in the San Francisco area. Fort Miley still is. Still a torture chamber of a VA shithole too. And I draw the line at talking about my involvement or what I seen or didn't see on electronic devices or through the mail. I just ain't going into it unless I'm face to face.

Letterman Army Hospital was located in the Presidio of San Francisco
foo fighters on Letterman is one of the edited bits among the revisions of TGATT from the thumbdrive
the Lucas/SkywalkerRanch memorabilia vaguely points to Letterman Hospital because Lucasfilm's Letterman Digital Arts Center is on the site of the old hospital
The San Francisco Chronicle reported on April 24, 1938, that the depression-era Works Progress Administration had authorized almost $2 million for construction on the Presidio reservation. Of that amount $345,000 pertained to Letterman General Hospital.

Update to www.oraclewatch.org - and wow - kinda creepy.
Song on the site, is John Denver singing "I'm Sorry", here's the lyrics before Schwinn beats me to it
Quote:
Its cold here in the city
It always seems that way
And Ive been thinking about you almost everyday
Thinking about the good times
Thinking about the rain
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again
Im sorry for the way things are in china
Im sorry things aint what they used to be
But more than anything else
Im sorry for myself
cause youre not here with me
Our friends ask all about you
I say youre doing fine
And I expect to hear from you almost anytime
But they all know Im crying
I cant sleep at night
They all know Im dying down deep inside
Im sorry fro all the lies I told you
Im sorry for the things I didnt say
But more than anything else
Im sorry for myself
I cant believe you went away
Im sorry if I took some things for granted
Im sorry for the chains I put on you
But more than anything else
Im sorry for myself
For living without you

He's not really answering anything at this point. Too much cloak and dagger for him, but I would guess he'll probably get around to talking about those.
