CONTACT:Marcus about Melody/Krystal (4/18) Photos of the two

Here's my email to him:

Quote:
Hello Marcus,
I see you broke things off with Melody. She sent me an email asking for advice. I didn't know you had ever met Krystal. You told Melody that "Even worse he said he found the missing Krystal more attractive! But she is married, so he couldn't even ask her out on a date." I know you checked the airlines for her flight. So when did you meet Krystal to find her more attractive than Melody?
Ursulla


And here is his reply:

Quote:
Ursulla,

I am not sure you can say I broke anything off with Melody. We weren't seeing each other. Unless you count an old friend coming to my house to watch TV "going steady". I never did meet Krystal. Before she left from Oklahoma she had a sick joke and said, "If I don't come back, put me on a milk carton." Her picture was enclosed. So we are sending out the "have you seen me?" mailers out to everyone we have in our database.

I said nothing of the sort of finding Krystal more attractive. I just told her that it might be a good idea to check out the Roseburg area, and see what she can find. But she was angry and thought I valued Kystal's safety over her own. Which wasn't the case. I just felt who better than someone who knows how to look for people.

I never saw her in person, and please…. You tell me who is more attractive. I feel Melody wins hands down. This does NOT mean I am interested in her though. Not that either is unattractive. Simply, I find Melody more attractive.

He's getting formal on me. Usually his emails were just signed "Marcus". Pretty convenient explanation.

And attached are the pictures. It's nice to be able to put a face with the name. Smile

Well, I guess that is a possible excuse for how he knows what Krystal looks like, but I still don't trust him any further than I could throw him....

i dunno, it's nice to have faces to go with the names, but its weird at the same time, neither of them look how i pictured them.....

I had this convo with Marcus today. The first part is about Virginia Vogel and I was trying to get him to tell me something he hadn't already said about her. I think Virginia's description is new. A while later I continued the convo and since I really dislike Marcus I just told himthe truth.

Dashcat7: Marcus....did you know Virginia Vogel?
Auto response from MarcusThesburg: I am currently away from the computer.

MarcusThesburg returned at 9:37:03 AM.
MarcusThesburg: No
MarcusThesburg: I saw her once though

Dashcat7: When?
MarcusThesburg: like 4 years ago or so
Dashcat7: What were the circumstances?
MarcusThesburg: She came to school. The Professor left a book at home he needed, so she brought it to hom
MarcusThesburg: err him
MarcusThesburg: Is this an interrogation LOL?

Dashcat7: I'm just trying to dind out more about her. What did she look like?
Dashcat7: Find = dind
MarcusThesburg: Suprisingly pretty... ABout 35 brown hair
MarcusThesburg: Can't remember much more

Dashcat7: Have you tried searching for her? Has Tobi looked for her?
MarcusThesburg: He did, found a dead end on the day we got expelled
Dashcat7: Did Jude or Marty know her?
MarcusThesburg: Just what we saw of her while we were in the lab
MarcusThesburg: Why do you ask?

Dashcat7: Melody found her car....we're trying to find Virginia
MarcusThesburg: I know Melody found her car. I conferenced withher often last week
Dashcat7: I know
MarcusThesburg: So, what are the questions for?
MarcusThesburg: I am a bit confused

Dashcat7: I'm trying to find a trail Marcus...the professor denies being married and Virginia just disappeared. I'm trying to find a clue to what might have happened to her
Dashcat7: You are the only one we know who has seen Virginia
MarcusThesburg: I would of asked Melody while she was in Eugene.. She could of used the ideas.
Dashcat7: I wonder if Melody got a photo copy of the marriage certificate? I'll have to ask her. And hopefully she'll get the blood sample analysed
MarcusThesburg: She doesn't really have those kinds of funds
MarcusThesburg: The police took a few samples before they burned the fields

MarcusThesburg: Bye
Dashcat7: Bye

Dashcat7: You know...the professor didn't send us the video of the puppy.
MarcusThesburg: Really? Why do you think that?
Dashcat7: It came from someone else. The prof never uses any name that isn't movie related.
Dashcat7: or his own
MarcusThesburg: Well, that's wierd. Where do you think it came from?
Dashcat7: I think it came from you...but that may just be wishful thinking on my part
MarcusThesburg: Ok, that concerns me. I better go. This is getting harrassing
MarcusThesburg: Good bye

Dashcat7: How do you know Krystal is attractive?
MarcusThesburg: One more accusation and you get blocked. I already answered Ursullas dumb questions
Dashcat7: Dumb? I'm sure she'll be happy to know what you think of her

Melody and Krystal pics

These two women have very similiar features, other than the hair and smile. Does anyone else think they look like the same person?

While both blond, the Melody picture looks more like a professional catalogue (and thus maybe taken off public domain) than a personal snap shot (which is what Krystals' looks like).
Try a yahoo picture search (if you have the patience) - may be hard to find the right key search term. We've found other photos that way.

LOL Dash. Love the conversation with Marcus. My dumb questions? He's getting too defensive. Guess I'm out of a job at Ideltech. Darn. Wink Now I have the perfect opening to email him saying to withdraw my app. Job well done. Very Happy

About Marcus, I guess I'm not convinced yet about where he's coming from. He seems fairly consistent, and the whole "invading privacy" piece may, from some vantage point, be unethical (I mean, in his developing TOBI), but from a different political point, or sense of what's needed for "security," it's not. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt for now.

But in terms of these exchanges with him that have accused him of nefarious doings, consider it from his perspective. He's been pretty tolerant of people calling him a liar and criminal, all things considered, so if you were him, and not guilty, wouldn't you get a bit fed up after a while?

I haven't had direct contact with him yet, but have read all the posts and can't seem to reconcile the doubts about him with what I've seen so far. If I'm missing something, please point it out.

(Here's an odd thought, following on someone's post somewhere (?), that all of these interactions, including the phone call, could be productions of TOBI. Maybe TOBI is a program developed by psy-op military folk to test out productions of virtual reality, to manipulate the populace through virtual media, and this is a test case being run using the ARG community. Hell, maybe ARGs are a test area for these same folk... Wink )

Although I trust on him less every day, I for one will keep "friendly" to Marcus for two reasons:
- I find easiest to talk to him than to the Professor
- We need someone "on his side" for further info Wink
