It's *our* PMs!!!
I have the biggest grin on my face.
And what a great article.
And I am so glad they didn't really ask us to do a human pyramid. Not yet, at least. (oh dear)

i'm travelling and freaked out when i realized the endgame event was taking place while i was away from nyc.
by mere chance i'm san francisco now. it will be awesome if some of our PMs and voice talent make it to the show.
thanks for the heads up on the nytimes article!

well, the only thing I can EVER hope comes from this ARG is that they realise how many people in countries OTHER THAN THE USA were actively following the game and solving puzzles (or trying really hard) and contributing with OTHER beekeepers etc.
I was HOOKED on ILB, right up until the point where the game excluded everyone that didn't live in the US (except for that Aussie dude that got his own axon - good on you!).
I'm highly jealous of all you switched on folk in the states, and I can only ask that those of you that made it to some axons and got to speak to melissa (live or pre recorded) are grateful of the level of involvement you've been able to hold - whether you can go to one of these events or not.
congratulations all those that are going to one of the 4 events - you deserved it

Yippee! Another login puzzle! Quick, get to work! (No brute-forcing, now...)
