Just noticed and don't know if it means anything (other than not using a grammar-checker):
Quote:
1. Einstein could have proven E=MC2 in three short lines. We'll show you we how to do it soon.
Either 'we' has been added or 'know' (as in 'we know how to do it') has been omitted.
Maybe nothing, maybe another reference to the 'collective' we.

I've been looking through the keys I've gathered so far, and we still haven't got any reported for Australasia and mainland South America.
The mapping went up the spout, starting with the one that said Indonesia and China, then there's one about Georgia with no indication of whether it's the country or US state, and finally one I picked up from elsewhere on the net which said Venus!
The big counter seems to be dropping by about 36 at a time, and the lower counter is currently at 11327.
poeticexplosion, have you been given 10 keys yet? And has anyone posted their blog entry about the importance of the keys to try and get the second set of clues?

I have maybe five from one person, and someone else sent me one.

But no "Ah!" lightbulb moment as to the link between them all?
EDIT - Sorry to be a blessed nuisance to anyone who's linked to my effort, but I remembered I had a Wordpress account, so I've set up a proper CYR-only blog at http://myf13.wordpress.com/ - this is (at least partly) because I'm not sure if comments can actually be left on my site. I will probably post things on both, but for linking etc, it'll be easier to use the new one.

wow...I just noticed we only have 2 days left after today... I suppose we should stop waiting for the CYR person to give us the next clue and try to find the 13 clues in the manifesto.

I don't think they'll give us the next clue until more people create their blog posts about the importance of the keys. I've done mine, but no-one else had when I looked earlier.
But yeah, finding the other clues would probably be a huge help too

also i looked up the top investment bank in the uk and that is UBS
quantum mechanics is all about energy and atoms in the text it asks the qustion does e=m2 or something like that well in quantum mechanics m=hv so the answer would be no
micro economics says they analyze market mechanisms
don't know if this helps at all but there you go
E=mc2 is part of special relativity. Which basically says there is no absolute frame of reference -- no matter what your viewpoint (whether you are a homeless woman from Kentucky, or a Rich college student from Moscow), the laws of physics do not change.
No one has come up with a unifying theory that includes both gravity and quantum effects. perhaps the theory combines microeconomics with the 4 fundamental fources -- the hidden hand of Adam Smith is a theory of physics, not just dollars.

Its just that it doesn't seem like there is much more to find in the writing...
JonB: why dont you make a blog about that and send it to the email address? We need more ideas so we can get the next clue.

YES (Revelation (I hope))
the rhodes scholarsips are only given out to a few people a year, and if we look back 3 years (2004) we should be able to find out who I. is.

If it's a scholar for the year 2004, here are the 32 people chosen:

Most notable based on the initial I:
Jeffrey Ishizuka, Worthington, Ohio, Williams College.
Daniel I. Helmer, Colts Neck, New Jersey, U.S. Military Academy.

Ok, I'm just gonna post something with what I have. We'll see if the 10 unique things is an absolute requirement I guess.

dont post
It doesn't say to post 10 keys, it says to use them to decipher the clue that is given
Edit: I read it wrong (I thought it meant to decipher the clue, not for the post)

I did my best at deciphering the pattern and posted about it in my blog (which is what twit.html said to do) and I emailed it to contactSPLAT chooseyourrevolution.com. We'll see what happens.
