 		Hour and a half should be an excellent length of time to check how long your sanity remains intact...so is the message from a male or a female?

 		yeh it is definetly Gillet road. But as was mentioned earlier it may not be the one near London due to the wording of the message.

The real question is, is it human? I'm guessing it's one of those "bloody clever cows". Or maybe the sheep; I wouldn't rule him out either.

The message is male, a londoner to be precise. Its been masked a bit so it sounds quite odd.

are you sure about that. I mean an american would call our stations a subway, thats not to say it isn't the underground. It's just of their culture to call it a subway. I may be wrong and it may be in the US but i think we can't say a total no to it being in London straight away.

so why is that at the end then? perhaps it's sent from an inside 3P member and that shows it was recordered or something within 3P grounds.

yes i believe so....sorry i know its not much else to go on, but it must link in with the 3P information we already have? prehaps two messages were piggybacked onto the CD without the 2 parties knowing? prehaps its another plan to lure us somewhere (gillet road?)........i guess only time will tell.[/quote]

 		It does seem odd that we have one message from someone warning about the Third Power followed directly by a message seemingly encoded by the Third Power themselves. Does this mean that Hesh or maybe Viard are also 3P?

 		If the message is simply '3P email compromised' nothing is to say that this is encoded by 3P themselves, lets not jump to conclusions.

I wondered about this, but then I decided that the guy might be a Perplexian, and they use the word subway. A New Yorker who uses the subway a lot would probably call the tube (London underground, for those who don't know) a subway unless they were careful. Atm, I think the best possibility that we have is that it's a Perplexian station unless someone can find another Gillet Road, or Gilet Road, or Guillet Road, or any other spelling you can come up with in whatever country you care to search.

I don't think it's possible that the two messages could come from different sources without the morse coder knowing about the voice. There's a whole bunch of silence after track 10 and then it starts up again, consequently it's pretty much a completely different track. And why would the Third Power (need to) communicate via an Earth CD that they know we'd search for hidden clues. I can't see any way inn which that message was not intended for us, although what it tells us is beyond me - we've been suspiscious of those emails all along and it's not as if we're actively relying on any of the information.

Considering the possibility that it might be a set up from the Third Power - would it make any difference? There's no way that we wouldn't go along, and we'd still have to have the discussion on whether to use the information we get afterwards anyway. Of course if whoever goes gets kidnapped/murdered then we might regret it.
