Interesting choice for a ride..Its a small world. I'll never be able to ride the ride again without thinking of this..
We so need a transcription of what was said..once I'm not on mobile, I'll work on it, unless there's something floating around already

Also linked is an image of the Trylosphere which contains morse code that seemingly was never fully decrypted.

Neat. They've also uploaded a clean mp3 of the recording they found: http://www.stopplusultra.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/PlusUltraInvestigationTape37.mp3
fwiw, the Trylosphere's morse spells
which doesn't ROT to anything obvious. But it's bisected by strange arrangements of Is/IIs and spaces which I'm not sure what to do with.

Man, it's been ages since I've been here. Tomorrowland's a good callback to the good old days of these ARGs.
StopPlusUltra still is a bit odd with their clunky in-universe/out-of-universe mixing, but at this point, it seems that they're definitely legit. How grand.

I just tried sounding out how the message reads with that letter, and it sounds to me like a certain bit of vulgar language. Yikes, and this is a Disney product, too...

Take me to Tomorrowland A few hours ago, Stop Plus Ultra's Twitter account referenced a comment someone has posted on their website. The woman claims to be the one who recorded that message years ago.
Here's the link: http://www.stopplusultra.com/what-does-this-mean/#comment-82
She also lists her email address if you have any questions!

There's a new video on the NEWS portion of the site. I suggest watching it. Closely.

I guess that's a nice memento to have in the coming hot summer months!
I love the badly photoshopped pic of Hugh Laurie w/ Walt.

Also, I emailed NyFairLady64, and here is a transcript of the short discussion:
Me: NYFairLady64,
Can you describe what you saw that day? It must have been overwhelming!
NYFL: Dear Bob,
"Overwhelming" is exactly the right word.
Thank you for taking the time to write to me. It's so nice to know there are those out there who believe me, and are interested in my experience.
I think there are a lot of people who would like to hear the answer to your question. Would you mind if I responded to it publicly, for everyone's benefit?
Sincerely,
NyFairLady64

Me: Dear NyFairLady64,
I think that would be an excellent idea.
Regards,
Bob
So, we'll see what happens!

Ooh, a loot opprotunity! Just like the old days!
It may not be a pin, but it's something. At least that'll be on sale as merchadise.
Speaking of which, still really need to find a Flynn Lives shirt of some kind, after all these years.
