Maybe it was a type of autoresponse triggered by the word 'help'?

I am trying to relax, but there is so much to do & so little time.

Why is my condition so unusual, Dr. Randle?

The really good news is that there's no reason why you can't make a complete recovery. Just try and stay calm.


maybe stay calm is a hint to another website?

Interesting

Has anyone ever read the Dark Tower Series of books by Stephen King? In one of them, he writes about this character that is being tracked down by evil forces. They post LOST CAT flyers up around the places that he has been to. The flyers would describe the features of the cat. The discription fit the guy thats being followed. They even went as far as saying that he answers to a certain name. They had the name wrong though........

Ah Hearts in Atlantis, & old Ted Brautigan who makes another appearance in the Dark Tower as a Breaker of the Beam Smile

Very strange since all I asked was how can i help


I sent an email saying I got a few numbers in Morse code. I wasn't sure what numbers I got, but here is what I got in reply:

The lightbulb video you found, it's a phone number...

Here is what I have so far; I reckon there may be an error in the phone number and so have asked Dr. Randle for help. smalloranges (from the source code) are a small Glasweigian agency so I threw that in too!

Dear Dr. Randle,

I am having trouble with my memory. I used to know morse code but now I seem to have forgotten it.

for example

----- =0
--... =7
---.. =8
....- =4
--... =7
--... =7
---.. =8
..--- =2
..... =5
..... =5
...-- =3

I think its but I must be wrong since that number doesn't work.

Can you help me?

Mink

p.s., have you seen a cat called Ian? I know Glasgow is quite far away from Manchester but man can those things get about!

Dark tide, what did you send them? If it is picking up keywords I'm curious to know what you wrote that got you what would appear to be an out of game response. I've now sent eric.sanders 3 messages (UeC, lost cat, general hello) and haven't received a single autoresponse! which makes me suspect they're NOT auto...

A copy of the book would be wonderful. Thank you.

Hello Matt,
Have you read the book? If you haven't send me your address and I will
send you a copy. Otherwise things won't make as much sense as they should.

The "Elephants on the moon" video appears to be viral marketing for the television program "24".

Dont have any idea how that could tie in with the book but it does make the comments left on it much less scary.
