One of the files, written in notepad titled "invlist" is an acrostic.

Using the numbers at the bottom of the deldoc.txt as indexes into the list, i created a new list (that may or may not be usefull). I had hoped that the first letters would spell something interesting, but it does not appear to be the case. Someone else may want to take a peek to see if something jumps out at you.

I haven't been able to fix the jpg yet (does it open in Photoshop? I don't have a copy) but I sent the file to myself on gmail and it gets a thumbnail. The top says "Coachella Afterparty" and there's a map with a "Main Tent", a "Lounge" a "Bar" a "Stage", and some other things I can't see too well.

EDIT: That's what I get for being off the IRC channel, j5 already sent the fixed file.

About the deldoc text:

Did some frequency analysis on this. There are 95 seperate addresses listed. In the numbers at the bottom, the numbers go from 0-95. No number is repeated more than once, except for 0 (which is repeated five times).

I made a slightly different reordinger than nhansard's. For mine, I removed all of the extra spacing in the addresses, and started numbering from 1. Still can't see anything jumping out at me, but my list doesn't omit or duplicate any of the addresses.

By the way, I'm pretty sure "Courier" refers to the font.
