So i finally deicded to give these things a shot and decided to start with this one seeing as it just started and its pretty creepy Razz. Anyway....i hope i can help Very Happy also ardiente you have been doing a damn fine job!

 		Welcome daihiey! You're definitely jumping in at the very beginning!

I just checked to see if I had heard back from the Dr. and I haven't. Thanks for setting up the site Ard (mind if I call you that???) - I just hope he didn't go and set one up too Laughing

Too esoteric? This is not a game. Even if it's not the answer, it's never too out there in any way, really. Part of what I love about this whole scene.

ard will be fine Wink

I think the doctor is finding some refuge in the countryside, so I'm guessing we won't hear from him for a day or two. He may well be a physician, but all his comments infer that computers aren't really his thing: getting a friend to digitise the image etc. So I doubt he's set up his own site yet (and, come to think of it, I doubt he's sequencing any genomes either...)

 		Yhea, that whole doctor doing cutting edge research without basic knowledge of how to use a computer thing seems kinda odd to me... I guess it's possible for him to have some assistants under him deal with all the tech, but it's just so against your standard brilliant docotor archetype to have him be a ludite. *shrug* Random observation.

I didn't think we would - I am hoping we get (at least) one of the postcards soon though... Laughing

 		So a roman coin...

Ardiente's gold theory sounds promising. The engraved images on the third warning video could be tied to alchemy. I'll try to search for them in some alchemy sites I know.

Maybe the good Dr. work is dwelling into the realm of alchemy.

 		I actually think this is some how related to religon. He talked about being at the vatican and the song in number 3, sounded very church themed to me. Also there was the cross below AV on the postcard. Just a thought, i tryed searching for religous orginaztions nothing that matches AV.

 		I emailed the doc while the forums were down stating i was trying to reach the wise ones (you guys) and he sent me a standard message he is trying to get to safety, and if i knew someone with the name N.... but i cant remember the name, just that it started with an N. He said that person is the one he has been corresponding the most with. the email got erased instead of into one of my folders ugg, but i figure he was meaning somone around here that might be corresponding with?

 		Hmmm try looking for the E-mail or atleast E-mail him back for what he said because you lost it.

Well i sent the Doctor a message.

Hello there, I have been working with a group of people on your problem. I have become very interested in helping you discover the meaning of AV. I have watched all of your videos,seen a postcard you were sent, and a coin left under your pillow. So as you can see im quite up to date with what has been happening to you. Though I have three questions i want to ask you.
1)What exactly do you study?
2)Are you a very religous man?
3)Do you know of anything that may have caused this to happen?Did you do something to a certain group?
Any information more information you have would be GREATLY appreciated.

-Dai Hiey


Guess will wait and see what happens.

Mr. XXXX,

Thank you for your letter. I am fear for my safety now so I can not communicate much for a few days or so. Do you know nihil? He is being very helpful.

I will think about these questions you have but I have asked myself these things many times with no answers.

Dear Dr. Peiper,

I have been reading about your situation. What disturbing images you have
received! I hope you are doing your best to keep yourself safe. I would
like to help as much as possible. Can you remember anything about when you
started receiving these strange AV messages? Did anything significant
happen in your life right before these packages began arriving? Please let
me know if there is anything I can do to help.

Best regards,
Hyexistenz



If said this before, but i think it's worth saying again....i'm a girl. Maybe i ought to put that in my signature.

 		Hello - yes, I am nihil, that is the name tied to my Yahoo address. Here's something I posted while UnF was down:

http://whoisav.proboards83.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1158857365

I think it is safe to say that the doctor is reading the forums occasionally - after I questioned his computer literacy I got this email:

Quote:
I have stopped for a rest and photographed the coin for you. I will make contact with you when I can get to the Internet for email and such. When I am secure I will send more of the digitized evidence. Thank you for your assistance. I can do basic things on the Internet but I have never made webpages and it does not interest me. I am a man of biology not silicon. Please bear with me.


So that explains that!

ooo! thanks for posting that. I just read the blog, looks like there's stuff on there that hasn't been posted here? or am i just being too lazy to read thru the previous pages?

Regardless, the blog looks great!

I thought the blog would be good just to post all the received evidence in one place (rather than scattering it through the forum) - it was also a blatent attempt at getting the doctor to reveal more of the evidence he claims to have been sent Smile

The coin photos are the only things that have not been posted here - they arrived in my email account while UnF was down. I'm not sure on size restrictions here: when they turned up in my email, they were each 3meg in size! Blogger appears to have cut the file size down somewhat - given the doctors aversion to things digital, I doubt that the files hide something else. but...

I'm not in any way experienced in Steg stuff (learning though) - if anyone wants the originals to examine in greater detail, then I'll try and post them here.

 		ditto on the stegging. I've tried it in other args but others have always had better luck with that than me.

Ardiente, i'm glad someone else in a timezone close to mine so i'm not the only one who appears to be posting "in the middle of the night."
