 		Hmm the day is off too?

I guess that's true aswell.

I never notice the date thing since im like 8 or 9 hours in the future compared to Dallas, so a 12 hour shift almost still makes it the right date Wink

I posted a comment on Foo's board askinghim what he thought was wierd about the video. Maybe he will answer, maybe he wont. Depends on how obvious he thinks the oddity is I guess

 		After watching the new video on Brackin's blog, I noticed something. In Foo's video, Leviticus doesn't say "Safety in Compliance, Safety in Defensecorp" like they've all been saying at the end of the videos.

 		A hint from Foo...
NEW
I sent Foo this email, mainly just hoping to provoke him:

Greetings, Mr. Fujimoto. We have been following with interest the developments related to the former UTD Time Communication Project, now owned by DefenseCorp, and a great source of both hope and terror for the world. In particular, we have been interested to note the discrepancies in time communication videos which have been posted to your weblog and other information. These discrepancies have led some to speculate that two potential futures have diverged in response to the content of the time communications.

Which future do you want to see, Mr. Fujimoto? Do you want to see a world of war and bloodshed? Do you want to see yourself become senate majority leader of Deus City? What if you become nothing but a puppet of DefenseCorp? What price are you willing to pay for the future?

WE are the present. WE control the future. The future does not control us.

In response i received this:
Quote:
I have been asking many of these questions myself - but the feed has been quiet lately. Simple data transfer and nothing more. I await patiently the first assignments promised to us by our future benefactors. I myself will be taking the logical steps dictated by science and knowledge. I believe the future can be changed, and as evidenced by the messages from my future self it is something that I will hold to for many decades. If I do become that potential me, then I only hope it is with the intent to bring safety and security to those who share in a desire to live in defiance of the decaying world around them. There is evidence that perhaps the world will collapse into anarchy and madness. There are those who believe that it is a predestined matter of fate or destiny that is unchangable, which to me is merely a self-depricating Casandra effect espoused by poets and fools. Brackin seems to be the spearhead of this belief. If I have deciphered his enigmatic clues correctly then the first letter of each of his aledged locations in these last weeks is all the proof I need to know he is no longer the idealistic dreamer I knew. He has become something far more dangerous.

Zuh? Anagram? I looked at the Brackin puzzle thread, and nothing jumped out at me....

 		This is just sounding a bit far-fetched to me. It seems AB is going to a lot of effort just to get a secret message of 'madness' over to us. Perhaps this is just an in-game 'coincedence' it just seems a bit, well, weird to me.

 		Well, at least Foo seems to believe that there is a method to Brackin's MADNESS.

 		New post from Foo on foo-defiant.blogspot....

The explanation of how the Time Communication Project works is a bit of a letdown. I was really digging the laser theory...this space-time rip seems too convenient and, as Foo himself contends, doesn't really add up.

 		This is/was in the psych test thread, but since the reply didn't relate directly to it, and possibly has another clue, I thought I'd pop it here.

Dear Mr. Foo,

I find your postings on the supposed "Time-Com" project intriguing... and the results even more so. What I have seen worries me from a general standpoint, but I wanted to drop a line showing my support in your investigations. It's at times like these that a rational thinking mind can overcome a lot.

Stress and frustration come with the mindset, but in the end never forget that there are people on your side.

Sincerely,
Adam




Got this reply really quickly, emphasis added by me:

Thank you Adam. It is nice to know that these efforts have not gone un-heeded. Our numbers are great, and my investigations into the nature of things is proving most interesting. Be weary, if what I am now postulating is true, then there may come a time very soon when we must make our choices carefully. For example, I have recently had an offer for help which may change everything, and I would be a fool to turn it down. Let rational thinking and logic be your guide adam in these coming days, the lure of the mystical smooth talking is strong.

Be stronger.

Help? From who?

... seconds later, I got this, which anyone who did the psych test should now have. It includes a 3-part email exchange, which if I've read correctly, we've known none of this info before:

Alexis Wright wrote:
Deus City "Temporal Agents",

This is Alexis Wright, many of you already know me and have communicated with me in the past through other means.

I will keep this short and sweet and speak in plain words to you with no riddles or dead languages. If you are loyal to the cause of FREE KNOWLEDGE then now is the time to prove it. Take a picture of yourself and as many others who can be trusted, HOLDING YOUR TEMPORAL AGENT ID CARD - and send it to me at this address. Identify yourselves in your email and pledge your loyalty to the cause of science and truth. I know that some of you are loyal to the others, and you will likely go running to your riddling faith master. But is is of no consequence.

If I am right, and we are successful in this endeavor, then our actions will echo through time, changing future history and the events to come in the next few weeks.

Foo and I will create a place to archive these pictures for everyone to see - and hopefully if we can prove that those loyal to logic over blind faith are in the majority, then we will be triumphant in changing the coming future! We will show this Defense-corp that we will not be controlled with fascist ideals or information bottle-necks with the promise of "cases" which never come!

It is up to you now agents. Safety in Numbers! Safety in Defiance!

Subject: Re: Alexis Wright
To: Alexis Wright <alex>

I'm honored Alex. I'm deeply sorry for your loss, and for what it's worth - no hard feelings for the server room accident - that was another life anyway. We should meet, but right now I'm hidden away. The project has been hijacked as I'm sure you know due to Brackin's incompetence, and I am now hidden to protect the truth of science and knowledge - what seems the logical thing to do. I have gained a lot of support now, and I think that we may soon be poised to stage a take-down of the 2006 defense-corp. My team tells me that it's fairly certain we have a man on the inside and I have been compiling a list of temporal agents which have been given special status within the future Defensecorp's database, fortunately I'm still the pipeline through which information is coming back to us - though this week it has been slow if not stagnant for some unknown reason in all but simple data transfer. I think with your father's legacy to back us we might be able to legally and through proper channels confront this defense-corp and get some real answers finally. I'm attaching the list of agents for you as proof of what I'm saying. Unfortunately I don't know who to trust since many of them are on Brackin's side. Perhaps you know of a way to weed out the others? I caution you from acting out in emotion towards him. He is a fool and an embarrassment to science. I'm glad you are back my friend. The truth of science and logic will prevail over blind faith. The future is coming and we are going to change it!

Foo, or should I say Fujimoto?

I'm sorry, I'm the one who locked you in the server room. It was supposed to be a joke, but I fell asleep and it all went terribly wrong. I just want to say I'm sorry. This has been a terrible time for me.

Where do I start? I've been following your bloggings, and those of Brackin - who came to me at Thanksgiving time. I helped him foo, dear god I helped him. I helped him trace down whatever it was he was looking for in Florida with my custom tracer program, (something about a solidity or something) then I drove him to my dad's hanger in Oklahoma, you know - his big hobby - where the two of them took off for God-knows-where. He insisted that we take him wherever it was that he went, but he refused to tell me. "For your own safety Alex!" He said.

Then the next day I got the call. They found dad's plane in Arkansas. He crashed foo. He's dead. They say he burst into a fireball in midair. I'm a multi-millionare now. Me, Dublin born and raised, and now heir to my father's fortunes. What would mom say if she were still alive? I buried him last weekend then spent the rest in a depressed and drunken rage. I was ready to end it all at one point, but now I'm realizing what I have to do. I have to help you.

What do you need? You literally name it and it is yours... except for Brackin, I'm already taking care of that one myself.

Wow. Picked the right time to sign up, huh?

edit: things to note:

the 'tagline' for Alex/CurrentFoo's idea of DefenseCorps is different from what we've known it to be both now and in the future.

Alex and Foo now appear ready to 'change' the future as it's appeared to them. OR... do they think the current DefenseCorp is incompetant, and want to birth the idea of DC as they've seen it in the future?

For some reason I lean towards the former - it really seems like Foo's trying to change his past which he's able to do in 2036. *twitches* If I descrbed that properly, anyway.

The inside man appears to be Phillip at first glance, but have the two been able to truly contact him?

Should we contact Phillip for them?

I'm new to this, but I'm digging the interaction side of things Smile

edit 2:

Foo's blog is down. Zuh?

 		I sent this E-mail to Foo a few hours before recieving the Alex E-mail. I'm looking very much forward to his reply, since I believe my E-mail touches up on some of the things in the Alex E-mail.

Wang's E-mail to Foo wrote:

Wake up Foo!?
This has nothing to do with technical trouble, atmospheric interference or anything of that kind. Defense Corp realize that the Shadow People are piggybacking their own messages to us in the feeds, and they obviously don't want us to receive those. Not because they're lies, but because they're not.
Adam is not your enemy, even though you call him "your known opposition". His views might differ from yours, but what he's ultimately trying to do is to discover the truth; I would think that's something you can relate to? Discovering the truth, and preventing the future Armageddon from taking place by changing the present.
Even though you send daily reports to the future (be they received or not) you also constantly express scepticism of what they tell us. If that's not all pretend, then at heart you and Adam share the same goal!
You need each other Foo... You are Yin and Yang, complete opposites in most everything, yet together you're greater than the sum of your parts. Reach out to him, get to the bottom of this mess, and let's all change the present together!


I'm posting it here since it was originaly on the Casey blog, but I sent the mail from my Foo-guy account, so I'm taking it down to keep my characters clean.

While waiting on Foo's reply I'd be very interested in hearing you guys takes on this, and whether im horribly wrong in my rant or not.

 		The thing that would worry me with that email is this fun little what if:

What if... the very scenario you describe... is how the future gets to be the way it is?

What if after the argument, project breakup, and other such whatnot that the two decide to put away their differences and work together... but in the end actually can't and this second fracture indirectly steers fate towards the Deus City future being shown at us.

... just Devil's Advocate stuff tho.
