 		[NEW] Wongmo Newsletter
New wongmo letter-

Quote:
Greetings, my friend!

Wongmo is home from this season's retreat with a quick recap of the week's
events!

The retreat opened on the 11th of October with a beachfront bonfire and
old-fashioned clam bake. The weather was perfect, with crystal clear skies and
balmy temperatures, the ocean lapping at the shore, and attendees joining hands
and singing songs around the fire late into the night.

The beginning songwriting seminars of the 12th and 13th were very well attended
and Wongmo was very very pleased with the calibre of students present. The
social mixer and group swim on the evening of the 13th was pleasant and
uneventful save for that incident involving Mara L (Mara, your bikini top has
been recovered and is being shipped to you).

Wongmo held the Pixels on the Page seminar the morning of the 14th and, after a
bit of a bumpy start due to some confusion on which conference room was
reserved, led a very interesting session. The coffee arrived late but Wongmo was
gratified to see bright, shining faces that early in the morning considering
some of you were out quite late the previous night. Yes, Tom B and Tina S,
Wongmo is looking at you.

The afternoon session on the 14th, "Lighting the Creative Torch," was well
attended. Wongmo thought the pyrotechnics at the session's start were a nice
touch even though there was some minor scorching on one wall.

Many of you took advantage of your free day on the 15th to indulge in a little
shopping. Wongmo noted a large increase in Hawaiian shirts and straw sun hats
the remainder of the week. Nancy C in particular helped the local economy a
great deal, and Hawaii thanks her.

The advanced songwriting sessions on the 16th and 17th were again an amazing
display of raw talent. It was stirring to see so many folks strip away the
pretense and artifice of the modern world and get in touch with their primal
selves through song. Many very interesting compositions resulted.

The sessions offered the morning of the 18th were evenly split, with some
attending the popular haiku on the beach seminar and the rest attending the
inner dolphin gathering. Wongmo was happy to see so many new faces getting in
touch with the sea creature inside us all.

The closing session, a "Firewalk of Faith," taught many attendees that they
could do the seemingly impossible. Afterward, so many of you expressed your
gratitude for this amazing experience! Wongmo is pleased to report that Sara F
is doing fine and sends her thanks for your kind thoughts. She is home from the
hospital and says she will try it again next year but, she says, she promises
next time she won't fall half way across. Wongmo also wishes to thank Jimmie K
and Ron W for helping Sara to her feet and putting out her caftan.

Wongmo hopes to see all of his new and old friends at the next retreat. Keep
watching for the announcement, and remember:The flight of the Eagle is no
further or faster than the trek of the Dolphin.

~Wongmo

 		I think Wongmo should get his own "Matrix" spin-off! That guy is hilarious!
*Possible lead role for Michael Richards*. Very Happy

 		I have attached a good portion of the header.

The thing I notice first is the line
Code:
X-mid: emVkQDRvdXJ0aGdhdGUuY29t


I belive this is a custom header line inserted on wongmo's side and possilby a clue. I don't know what to do with the value

Code:
emVkQDRvdXJ0aGdhdGUuY29t


Sorry, newbie question. I'd love to play with this info to find a clue, but I don't know where to start.

 		[edit] I'm stupid. Zed, is your e-mail @4ourth...etc.com? If so, that's your e-mail encoded in base 64.

Darn, I was really excited for about a minute.

 		zed and omnie, as seen at http://mail.nl.linux.org/phpchannel/folders/phpchannel.0308

it appears (as omnie said) to be something that Octeth attaches (if you look, search for x-mid its also generated by octeth in that email)

:)

WTF? Shocked

Did YOU do this, did THEY do this?

Who's responsible? If we order one do we get a free clue? Very Happy

Is that how much T-Shirts cost where you're from? Sad

Nice Idea, wish I'd thought of it Rolling Eyes
