 		Oh.

I know where they are.

If I may direct your attention here (Onionring's post and below).

Now, unless I'm misunderstanding what we're being told here (which is highly probable), our two missing subjects may be in Japan.

Tell me, where are Naomi and John? I should dearly like to help them. Japan is getting boring.


I'll reply tell him I'm looking too.

 		We know an Alex. Wasn't he Hax Spyder in Project Ashcroft 2?

Hold on a second. Let me check.

APAS Peterson was someone who was very much against Hax in PA2. One of the last AIM conversations logged was with a nsrtpXLEA. Are APAS Peterson, Alex Peterson and the recently mentioned 'Alex' one and the same?

Inf1nityParad0x: Have you ever spoken with SmarterChild?
bust them heads: I have.
Inf1nityParad0x: Such a confusing thing. Very frustrating.
bust them heads: I've been speaking with others who've contacted you.
Inf1nityParad0x: Oh?
bust them heads: In the beginning, was I the only one you contacted, or were there others?
Inf1nityParad0x: I contacted you, and I was then later contacted by one JakRhee.
Inf1nityParad0x: Do you know this person?
bust them heads: I do.
bust them heads: But I was the only one you initiated contact with in the beginning?
Inf1nityParad0x: Yes, yes.
bust them heads: Interesting.
bust them heads: Why?
Inf1nityParad0x: The internet is lonely.
bust them heads: But why me?
Inf1nityParad0x: As I said, your username was floating around.
bust them heads: Where?
Inf1nityParad0x: I can't give you an exact location. All I see is words. The websites that you connect to aren't the same as what I see.
bust them heads: Well.
bust them heads: Anyway.
bust them heads: Moving on.
bust them heads: I do have something productive to speak with you abotu.
bust them heads: about**
Inf1nityParad0x: Oh?
bust them heads: Yes.
bust them heads: Refresh my memory; what were the names of the two missing subjects?
Inf1nityParad0x: John Peterson and Naomi Goldsman.
bust them heads: Interesting.
bust them heads: How high of a probability would you assign to the event that they may be in Japan?
Inf1nityParad0x: It seems as likely a place as any, I suppose. Anywhere outside the US.
bust them heads: I've heard from others that they've received emails from one "John S" speaking of Japan.
Inf1nityParad0x: I've never met anyone with that name. Are you sure you have it correct?
bust them heads: Quite so.
Inf1nityParad0x: Odd.
bust them heads: So.
bust them heads: If you would...try and make this situation a little clearer to me.
Inf1nityParad0x: I apologize. I'm just as confused as you are.
Inf1nityParad0x: Are John and Naomi in trouble?
bust them heads: I have no idea.
Inf1nityParad0x: How unfortunate.
bust them heads: Well, anything I can do?
Inf1nityParad0x: I honestly don't know. I'm at a loss for ideas myself.
bust them heads: Alright.
bust them heads: Well, unfortunately I'm a little brain-dead at the moment.
bust them heads: I'll speak with you tomorrow, yes?
Inf1nityParad0x: Alright.
bust them heads: Great.

 		It's not a simple substitution cypher though.

The first "O" must by I or A, making "oonh" either aa** or ii**. Also, "Ts't" is impossibe. It would have to be "S*'s" which isn't a word.

If anyone wants to try to figure this further, and assuming the word breaks are preserved, "O" (I or A) and Ts't (probably it's) are good places to start.

 		I'm thinking Vignere as well, and I like Yembles guesses. I'll work on it later when I have a chance.
