[INTERACTION] New phone call from T.E.P. Enterprises. Take a survey.
I didn't want a nano robot, so I think I was cut short.
Edited the subject.
[EDIT] Edited subject once more to adjust to the find of tepfoundation.org --Gisk

Got the same call. It was definitely P.E.P. Enterprises.
Yeah, it was odd, but I just answered yes to everything, and the person seemed fine with it.

It was wierd to listen to someone ask you if you want to go to space in such a blazé way.
Was there something you were supposed to say in the survey? I just said "sure" to everything.

answered "yes sir" to the lady on the other end after the robot question, and the call ended right there with a thank you for participating.
so it must be the end of the survey.
:p
(I also heard T.E.T.)

Call back to the Number hits a T.E.T. Foundation Voicemail.
Area-Code places the Number in Palm Beach County, FL
Chippy gave it a call and hit a person "Sally Evans"[/spoiler]

I got call, from an Alisha Page from PEP Foundation, (again, not sure if its tet, but sounds like p)
somethings:
it takes 5 days to travel in space elevator, and she asked about having a robot made with nanotechnology that came from an orbital colony.
managed to make a recording of a minute or two, which i will post in next couple of days.

I got my call while I was driving home. Went to pick it up and it stopped ringing - no signal. Was very upset. Checked the received calls, saw the number, called back and said "Someone just called me from this number." The girl on the line asked if I was Rowan, I said yes, and I took the survey. Yay!
I really don't remember much since I was busy driving, but the questions seem to have been the same as what everyone else reported.

I missed the call, but was told they'll call back sometime later tonight. Did anyone else get told they won the Name The Rock contest? I'm not sure if I actually won because I had a very unreliable messenger.
"Yeah, some person called. I think you won some sort of contest... something about naming a rock...?"

Just got the phone call myself. Was a survey for the people sponsering the contest I think. Asked me for age group. Who makes most of the traveling choices. If I dont mind traveling for 5 days to a space colony, the robot question, and a few others. Really caught me off guard since I was not expecting it. Though the robot question was the last one I believe. Really friendly person and I answered yes to all the questions. Caller ID said FL as well. Though I thought PEP, but could be wrong. Also think one question is do you support nano tech research, but memory kinda fades quickly and was caught so off guard. Believe this is a call to see who actually is still interested in playing and who moved on

So I got this call, some lady talking about a survey. I'm about to say the usual "FUCK YOU" and hang up, but then I heard "...because you showed interest while participating in the 'Name that Rock' contest..."
And then I jumped for joy and answered all the questions. Looks like this is gonna pull me back into the ARG world.
