I actually heard "Sunny Evans" when listening to my message. (I missed the call, but I called back and left a message of my own!)

I have to admit, for a PM "learning game" I didn't expect live calls. This is coolnessy!

I just recieved the call with the same questions. I live in the UK and i spoke to a male that didnt leave a name.The call came from a witheld number. He seemed a bit stuttery with his questions and at first I had no clue what he was going on about. Finally i caught on. Was a quick conversation and he wouldnt deviate from the questions unfortunatly.

At first I had no idea what he was going on about becuase a new show is about to lancuh in the Uk called space cadet and I thought It might be a promotion for that. Finally I caught on when I asked the mode of transport to space.

Woo Hoo. I just got the call and am no longer feeling sorry for myself. It was from an unknown number and it sounded like he was British. He mentioned the name the rock competition first then asked for my age group. Then he asked who makes the travel arrangements in my household. He also asked if i was interested in traveling into space, if i would be willing to travel for 5 days to a colony, if i would support nano robot technology and if i would like to own a nano robot from the colony. As he thanked me and said goodbye he definatly emphasised the name of the company and i am sure he said T.E.P.

Just got the call myself. I answered "yes" to all questions, except the Robot one, where I said "yes, on the proviso that I could be reassured of the robot's safety."

The response was "Alright, so safety is a big concern to you?"


No more info I'm afraid. It was very nice though, considering I'd almost forgotten about the ARG.

Oh yeah, I never received any snail mail stuff either. Any other people in the UK get the phne call but not the mail outs?

Why do they wait till I go to Disneyland to start making contact? Well. I would have answered yes to all the questions, had I not been here by the pool.

Well, I called and left a message inquirying about TEP's coalition with Orbicon and how it came about.

I gave my psedo, Jonathan Neighbors, head of the People For Orbicon Foundation.

Hopefully I'll get a call. Smile

(I've also left threatening messages at the various CARTS sites, warning them of The PFOs ability to "eliminate".)

Smile
