Question marks denote words I'm not sure about just a guess at the letters according to closest resemblance.

start
lolol? rita?
64? alpha delta
mooding? defeated
payden? lvlney?
still
end transmission

Thats what I can read of it.

Still better than it was.. they moved it slightly closer to the camera.

And zooming it in and cleaning it up just makes things worse its so pixelated you lose more than you gain. You cant even overlay multiple frames to create a semi-overexposed image because the size of the pixels will just give you blobs.

You're thinking of 1138, which crops up in pretty much all Lucas-affiliated stuff, originally from his film THX-1138.

I didn't realise it too was an easter egg, but 1138 is the universal one.

person in webcam 2

ok, so my first time i looked at the webcams, i saw in the second webcam the hallway with the tall cutout in the background. moments later about 12:54 Central time on 7/10/07, there was a person standing in the hallway looking towards the camera and looking over his right shoulder behind him. after refreshing he was gone. no one has posted anything of the sort and i was wondering if anyone saw it. james rac saw it. thanks

Yes, I saw him. He appears to be a janitor. I work in a different building, and see these guys in the evening with their grey canister backpack vacuum cleaners with purple tops, as you can see in the picture when you zoom in.

A little birdie I know who's been to this building says it's the hallway to the lobby of the building, and the cutout is Master Chief (big surprise).

autodownloading images

I wrote a stupid little script that downloads all the camera images every 15 seconds and saves all of them. I started it last night and currently have about 1500 images saved per camera.

I started it off again and I'll check all of them this evening after work, or put them up where someone else can check on them. If someone else is doing this already, let me know, and I'll stop.

I read the note on the left as "Why haven't you xxx xxx past?"

edit: "Why haven't you all xxx past?" (not so sure about "past," but feel good about the rest).

someone else already confirmed it saying "Why aren't you at your post?" (another Star Wars reference), but i can't remember what forum it was in

Two new views of a post-it note on the webcam (well, 3 notes) take a look to see what they say! (AR Wuz here?)
