 		[UPDATE] Peter Thompson Bio picture (May 19)
Just found something new! In Peter Thompson's bio page there are letters flashing up in the background of his picture - I'm trying to figure out what they are!

Hope I've created this new thread /post correctly.

Edit - you did fine, Thanks! Just added the date - celina63

Good catch!

To me it looks like they spell out

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SURVIVOR GUILT

which would make sense given his bio. So where do we enter this phrase this time?

 		I've found the box and typed it in but nothing happens other than the little grey circle appearing below the text. Has anything happened for anyone else?

EDIT - Oooo nevermind!! I must have typed it in wrong!!

Yes, and in the 'tobacco' folder:

Put it in the text box.

underneath the photo


There's a tonne of hidden stuff in the following pages... It'll take a while to go through it all!

I really haven't got a clue how to get a better look at those 'flashes' of information.

Very good. How did you do that? It is a blur to me.

There's definitely something there in all 3 folders I think but they flash up for such a short time.

BTW - well done for getting the letters. That's amazing!

 		The figure that appears in each part looks kinda maybe like a nurse?

Anyone able to get each pic (as they appear differently lit or something) and maybe merge them to get a better view?

Edit: Actually, forget that. Looks more like 3 different people in white uniforms.

 		meaning of survivor guilt
If Thompson has survivor guilt, what could that mean? Is he defecting from the Hanso party line? Could he in the future? One of Lost' pet themes in redemption.

What about his survivor guilt in the context of how Hugh manipulated his documents: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=241141#241141

So the story is that Hugh downloads the files, forwards them to Peter, who then downloads them locally. While not useful in itself, it does show that the directory structure can be analyzed to determine what people have been doing. Perhaps we can find more if we keep going with it.

Notice at the end is says "I work for criminals, always have, always will."

Is the change to first person significant?

I think we need to find out persephone's true identity - she is the one who hacked the site internally and it privy to all of this information - maybe she is liddy?

 		I've gone to the Hanso site a number of times and cannot see the flashing letters or the new log in box (in the Exec bio of Peter).

Do I need to go their through another link? (like the subLYMONal or 'Compass'?)

Try loading www.thehansofoundation.org/content_execbios.swf in its own window. Then, open up THF. I had to do this to update the exec file. Thanks to catherwood for the tip.

 		Can anyone make out the name of the file that does not lead you to a flash pic? Starts with a P.
