I don't get something else either.
In the newspaper clipping about sarah's death by DD.
The words "A Mile from Central Uni" and "Two-Door Sedan" seem bolded.
Yet, in the picture, it looks like a 4 door car. Also, Cars with two doors aren't referred to as Sedans.
Either the PMs of this one aren't too good at writing, or there is something fishy (no pun intended) going on with the death of Sarah.

Sam was 11 years old when he was discharged? Umm, on the discharge paper it says date of birth 17 APR 57. The obituary says he was 48 when Sarah died in 2008. If Sam was born in 57, he would be 51 years old in 2008. He was then discharged in 68 at the ripe old age of 11? Or if he is 48 then he was discharged when he was 8? Either there is a clue in there, or someone at UBI meant to put his discharge date as Sept 08, or these discharge papers are meant to be complete fakes, perhaps to throw off anyone who might be wondering if he is still employed by the Third Echelon.

Yes, the 11 year old thing is another obvious mistake or clue. that would mean he joined the navy as an 8 year old andbegan school while in the womb. lol
I just got done reading the, what is now, 23 pages at penny-arcade.com
They are not really that much farther along, but the thought over there is...
Sam Fisher's daughter was killed by a "drunk driver" (possibly someone made to look like a DD, but actually someone more ruthless) This person is being held in jail in Chicago.
Sam's last robbery was in Chicago. He was picked up and transported to the same Chicago jail.
Maybe Sam's vendetta (or newest echelon mission) starts with the "Drunk Driver" (Actually a guy by the name, false or not, Joe Boyd)

One last thing before I actually do some work today.
Has anyone had the chance to reverse the audio from the video shon on the bewaresamfisher.com site?
Around the 20th second a male voice begins to speak backwards. It lasts for about 7 seconds and never appears again.
I have been unable to do so myself since my audacity app keeps crashing when I go to Filter, Reverse. lol

I wonder if Sarah's death was faked by the third Echelon to give Sam an apparently "legitimate" reason to go berserk. They then faked his discharge so that he would be out in the public and going "rogue" in an effort to build up his credibility with some terrorist group so that he can then infiltrate them and put a stop to whatever bizarre nefarious plan they have......

Okay, I was able to export the section of the backward voice in the video file to wave and then reverse it. Here is what I came up with. Damn, I was expecting something cooler, like instructions or a message from Sam Fisher.
Quote:
...I am ascending to my father
and to your father...
and to my God...
and Your God...
It sounds like just another channel in what appears to be a frantic frequency hopping video sequence. The question is, why put the evangelist in the video backwards and everything else forward?

I've done a little research on this passage:
Here is the full text from John 20:17:
Quote:
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Either the 20:17 is a code for something which is pretty common, or the passage itself is a clue.
The only reason I say this is because it's the only thing that is performed backwards in the video on the the site.
I've read this Wiki post about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_20:17
there could be some parallels.
Mary Magdelene was to deliver a message to Jesus's Brethren that he headed to heaven.
Someone is going to deliver a message to Sam's brethren (Us) that he is headed "somewhere"? lol
Could be wild spec, but this is a lot of fun.

Also, as if we didn't have enough clues about the DD214 being fake.
The most important thing is, it's not signed... by anyone.
They need to be signed.

Kennedy at penny-arcade has given a link to a new video:
http://www.bewaresamfisher.com/uk/video/nsa.flv
Based on http://filext.com/detaillist.php?extdetail=FLV
It's a flash video file.
I cannot open it though. I'm not even sure how this video was found or if it was peeking behind the curtain.
EDIT: Look what I found!

I used the above FLV player to look at what appears to be a surveillance video of some cops (I say this because of the 10-13 radio code that was given on the radio) watch a bald man (Fisher) speak on a pay phone and walk away.
Weird though, that in police code, 10-13 means a weather report.
probably nothing except that the PMs want us to know that the cops are watching Sam.

Smells like FortyTwo in here.

You'll have already noticed that the picture here has a different telephone number in the bottom right corner than the one given on the main page. I called that number but got nothing after three rings. I really hope I didn't wake some random guy up.

Why does everyone equate EVERY viral marketing campaign to 4orty2wo Entertainment? Personally I would think that they have enough on their hands dealing with (spoilerised for META-ness):
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
LastCallPoker and Hex168
Now, if anyone's capable of running 3 ARG/marketing campaigns at once, it would be them, but first think how busy they are with other projects.

I really could care less WHO makes viral marketing campaigns. They are fun.
I'm relatively new to it as well and I'm beginning to pay more attention to detail in every aspect of my life actually.
It's weird and it also sounds like I'm punping one of those infommercials as if you could buy an ARG for $39.95. lol
