I think we should really try to talk to Bruce about everything that has been going on. I also think we need Meaghan's webmail. I think we are being pushed to talk to her. Find her blog or her email but I think she's just waiting for us to find her.

I sent Bruce an email. I used the abbottSPLAT anonymousfame.com address because I didn't know the email "privacy policy" at Marzent. Haven't heard anything but the mail didn't bounce. I suppose I can send a copy to the Marzent address since it appears Bruce has complete control of the server and most likely his email is secure.

I sent an email to bruce a few days ago trying to help him with his problem. I am a recovering addict and I goto meetings and all that so I kinda know what he is going through. I figured maybe I would be able to become better friends with him or whatever if he knew that we were one in the same.

Yeah hehe I am hungry I want some pizza. I haven't got a response from him either. Come to think of it I wonder what happened to the people on the devil hunt? Maybe they got taken to the other dimension.

[UPDATE] July 28 -Bruce hacking the Marzent site Update..
Quote:

The Deeper You Dig, The Darker it Gets
I've closed the door to my home office. Not necessarily because I want privacy, but because it's the only barrier I have to muffle Diana's barking.
"I'd prefer it if you started drinking again."
I've been spending an awful lot of time at my office. I slept there Tuesday and Thursday night ~ this is against Marzent policy, so I had to be slick about it. I told Diana I was working late. At first she didn't believe me—left me voicemails implying I was cheating on her. I know that on Thursday she drove by the Marzent parking lot. The lights from her car woke me up. I'd fallen asleep at my desk.
I just can't stop the digging. Thing is, I think I found something. I wanted to get a better sense of The Man, Don Marzano. The Fat Cat, the Grand Puba. He's not an oft-mentioned man on the Internet or even on the Marzent Network.
My Internet scouring did lead me to 1980s Red Sox rookie catcher John Marzano, though. I wonder what he's up to…
But I digress…
Pictures of Marzano are rare…and the ones I did find on the network were almost exclusively of him standing alone with a big-toothed grin. I did find of few of Marzano posing with co-workers…in the office, on job sites, etc, but only a few. I know I'm still fairly new here, but I didn't recognize any of them, or their names, for that matter.
"You're not going to marry Marzent, you're going to marry me!"
Some of the pictures that had accompanying captions. I ran their names through an HR search and they all came back with the same information—working with me, in the same building as employees of the "Innovation Department".
Strange thing is, I've never heard of that. Neither has the Marzent floor plan I found on the network.
I'm not a superior hacker, but I knew I needed more info. I considered "steps" I might take to get access, but I also had a hunch that the new HR assistant, a pretty, young and fairly daffy girl named Yasmina would still have her password set as "SETPASS".
Good hunch.
Here's where things get really strange. I discovered each employee from the "Innovation Department" has the same social security number and an address right outside of Aglaura. I google mapped the address…it doesn't exist.
Who are these guys?
"Meaghan needs you around and so do I!"
Digging deeper, I tried different file extensions on our intranet…I found one suspicious area that greeted me with a restricted access message. The extension was "marzanoprivate". I can't figure out how to get in…it's driving me crazy. Good thing I have every Veronica Mars episode of DVR. I need to kick my sleuthing skills up to the next level.
"You're acting just like him…just like Dale."
Maybe I am, Diana. Maybe I am.
Ok, so it looks like we need to get into the Marzent site , too.
What kind of Yankee fan updates his blog during a game?
Edit to say: I started a topic for this in the puzzle thread.

Wonder if some of the names were like Marco, Sal and Frank?
EDIT: Whoops! Sorry. I see Sal is dead . Three years ago, tomorrow .
Likely a coincidence that the contact is "dale" but since this is in Illinois, I'm thinking it's OOG. At least it's current.

How do you know that SilverRibbon's site was modified "today"? If I recall, OOG she did some work for the PM for CTW1 and therefore her site is OOG. But I've always found it strange that SOD and EmptyThreats sites have remained live.....

Well... one way to find out if it's still there for a reason... Someone could recommend to Bruce a decent restaurant to go to?

Bruce,
I am finding your blog very interesting lately.
I may have some information you might find interesting - regarding the
Marzano name....I've had some experience doing internet research and
using more than just google (yeah, I know, blasphamy), I've come
across two websites that you might find interesting:
http://www.emptythreats.com/ (specifically -
http://www.emptythreats.com/hours.html showed up on my search engine).
From that page I used the name (Salvador Marzano, and the shortened version, Sal, and found this:
http://www.sonsofdon.com/
Anything here ring any bells????
And I'm not looking to work for Marzent, that is for sure - from what
you've been sharing, something about the whole thing seems fishy.
Is GreatWater General still hiring?
Heather
P.S. How do you feel about Chinese food?
Edit to add: Sent to his personal email from where he finally responded to me a couple of weeks ago.

kona, are you using the informationSPLAT marzent.com email for Bruce?
Is it possible that Don doesn't exist? Or that he's been taken over by someone/thing which would explain his not being seen and the images that are available of him with others are people that don't exist? They might be stock photos.
And lastly - when is Bruce going to wise up and leave Diana?

Coming late in the game so I don't know if anyone has been successful finding out Meaghan's info..
I sent out a few emails posing as a friend who misplaced meaghans online info. I asked for her email or for them to atleast pass along my email and have her email me as I have been wanting to reconnect with her for some time..
Hope that helps and I will update if I get anything successful out of it...
