Plato is also credited with introducing the myth of Atlantis in his book Critias.

This is all coming pretty fast now, but from what is revealed in the hidden directory, it appears we have a location for Hank:

And (in the source code) we have some instructions:

when you log in one of the pictures is part of the video on 746865656e64.com. At the end of the video it shows a child on a boat. That frame of the video is on the new webpage just a lot fuzzier.
almost got lost with everything moving so fast

ducenti is latin for 200 and octosex is 86 so add that up and its 286. Latin class helped out after all. 286 is very popular with these guys.

Ok, in the source of the curiosity page, it has this as a comment:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"you see what I have seen find him and convince him"
Sooo... We have to find Hank, who is somewhere in Bermuda...
Anyone from the US know anything about this area. I have no clue
EDIT: Ok, looking at Google Maps, I found the Exact Spot:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
(maps.google.com with the querey [+32 1' 20.40" , -66 7' 8.40"])
It LOOKS like a small Island off the coast of Bermuda, but I can't be sure because the map quality is too low. Maybe someone with Google Earth can check?

OK, I'm not really sure of all the etiquette around here, but I'm pretty sure this is something that should be in a spoiler tag. For example, that's how I posted this comment on the last page
The exact location he's given (longitude, latitude) actually appears to be pretty far off the coast, so maybe he's on a ship. Possibly the ship in the image on the /curiosity page.
Edit:
I checked it with Google Earth, and there'snothing there but ocean.

Something's bugging me about the Google Maps image -- the link text says "Make this Hank's Default Location", but when you search for an address in Google Maps, what you actually see is "Make this my Default Location." How would Hank get Google to refer to him in 3rd Person? Is this a clue of some sort?

I THINK that if you are logged into a Google account, Google will refer to you in third person, so an account named hank would have to have been made...
*Burns the Intertubes over to Google*
Maybe he has a Gmail Address?
I GUESS it would be hankSPLAT gmail.com, but this is probably way off

I just signed up for the purpose of following this with you guys. I didn't realize there was a forum about it until I Googled it.
My question right now, does the gif link number that brings us to Hank's location mean anything?

I'm shooting blind here, i still haven't seen the site update because of computer issues (we're fighting, it happens sometimes....)
Anyway, The King is mentioned twice in the curiosity page. It's possible that Hank is the King. What does this mean? i'm thinking it's not a literal term. The reference to Plato is intriguing. Some have theorized that Plato actually was Socrates. or rather, Plato wrote all of the works attributed to Socrates.
Socrates wrote of a Philosopher King who, in The Republic, was Socrates' version of the just leader. It's a start. I'm gonna jump in on this "King" angle.

Well it's definitely not hex, a common code for this ARG so far, and I don't know what else it could be... any suggestions?
SNAP the error codes from the flash are the URL for the Map, and are very similar to the co-ordinates themselves.
Sooo... maybe the left out page from the flash, Kayk Takma (Dead End) means that there's a Dead End at the co-ordinates?
