 		PUZZLE: Pages at Synthasia
Figured I'd set up a place to organize the pages as Dale posts them.

One thing that interests me are those very delicately, precisely drawn squares with patterns in specific places on the page.

I'll see if I can create a single page with them included in their proper spot when I get home later. OR, we can ask Marc at Redkore if he has any ideas... Smile

these look to me like overhead drawings of stone formations. Grey weathers?

 		DATA: pages
Here's a rudimentary Excel that I was using to help me organize my thoughts on the pages. One thing that popped out at me after I started writing it down: what I thought were large numbers are odometer readings. Duh.

I leave this as a starting point for others to add and correct as needed. If these pages get more plentiful, it'll be good to have a place where it's organized.

 		notebook places
Here are some things and links that I found in regard to some of the random words on the notebook.

Page 3- "(401- 847-3300)" belongs to HOTEL "VIKING" 1 "BELLEVUE" AVE, NEWPORT, RI 02840-3293 ( words in quotes on on notebook pages)

http://www.rootsweb.com/~rinewpor/maps/Newport1873.html
Link to information on an old Stone Tower in Newport. The origin of the tower is uncertain. The picture of the tower matches the drawing w/ the three openings. Tower also called the the old stone"mill".

Page 4- Borne dale+ Borne, MA? "Buzzards" =Buzzard Bay, MA?"Sandwich"=sandwich MA? "Manamet"=River and native tribe to the area. A stone with an inscription was found in this area.

http://www.bournehistoricalsoc.org/rune.htm
Information the stone with inscription found there.

http://lithic.50g.com/mass.htm
More information and a really poor quality picture ofthe stone.

http://planetvermont.com/pvq/v9n2/megaliths.html
better picture of the stone and following interpretaion of the stone:
"A proclamation of annexation. Do not deface. By this Hanno takes possession."

Site also makes mention of the Punic( notebook) wars, Hanno(notebook),Iberia(notebook). Part way down the page is a picture of what looks like the coins that have been sent out and The "eye of bel"graphic on the page looks familar. Was something sent to people with that on it?

Next, I think that the drawing on page 4 with the inscription of "Too many" is located here and that it is a drawing of the dighton rock :

http://planetvermont.com/pvq/v9n1/megaliths.html

The names "Mathers" and "Angel" are also mentioned on this page.

And 2 more links :

http://www.crystalinks.com/mysteryhill.html

http://www.members.aol.com/torcboy/stonehenge.html

Mentions "oracle" and a "T" shaped room.

 		I need help please. When I try to print the pages, the right side is cut off. Is there anything I can do to get the whole page to print? I've tried checking "fit to page" and it still didn't work. Big sigh.....

Thanks Very Happy

 		Click on the pic or download it so that it's separate. Then print that "to fit"

Got photoshop? Resize the photo to 80%.

Otherwise, perhaps one of the wonderful folks in uf could do the same and post it for all of us who can't get to Pshop while at their job... Laughing

Thanks Cem Very Happy . I tried to print one of the pages, but my freaking printer just stopped working, again. Now I'm waiting for my computer to freeze again too. I will try again tomorrow. Thanks again for doing this. It must have taken awhile.

On a side note: "I got a Dell dude" Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy It should be here by next week. I can't wait. YEA!!!!!!!

 		pg 11
didn't feel like working so i decided to look up a few things on the notebook:

Page 11 - Stockum (down the right side) refers to the Coshocton County Cemetery near West Lafayette, OH which is haunted by Mary Stockum. more info www.forgottenoh.com/Counties/Coshocton/coshocton.html

the telephone number 740-593-2200 came up listed under Ohio University
www.ohiou.edu/news/contacts.htmlx

bottom section of the page refers to the town Moonville, including the haunted Moonville Tunnel http://www.forgottenoh.com/moonville.html residents worked in the Hope Furnace and there is also a cemetery nearby

 		SPEC: 1789
When shadowtalk1 was busy sending us streams of numbers, he sent the following sequence:

Quote:
2,4,6,30,32,34,36,40,42,44,46,50,52,54,56,60,62,64,66,2000,
2002,2004,2006,2030,2032,2034,2036,2040,2042,2044,2046,2050,
2052,2054,2056,2060,2062,2064,2066,4000,4002,4004,4006,4030,
4032,4034,4036,4040,4042,4044,4046,4050,4052,4054,4056


Notice that this list is missing the numbers 1, 7, 8, and 9.

Yet on page 1 of the journal, there's the number 1789

Coincidence - or clue?
