This could be nothing, but I noticed a spelling error...

Ecclesiastes 5:2
Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.
Proverbs 18:2
A fool does not delight in understanding, But only in revealing his own mind.

The new international version for Proverbs 18:2 reads "A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own opinions." Just in case...

Thanks for the finds - updated.
How do we 'solve' the pages of text and get the username and password, I wonder.
The text looks like sleeve notes for albums, but it doesn't seem to be googlable.
The <br>s are in funny places in the text - I wonder if that's significant.

It could be significant that there are 6 of Orwell's rules and 6 album reviews. Maybe they correspond somehow. I tried applying the first rule to the first review, second rule to the second review, and so on until I decided this was probably a waste of time.

6 is a mathematically important number. two sixes are one less than the number of the beast... also, remember that there's a lot of noise (too much info) and that's why we've got so many individuals decoding individual pieces of the puzzle.
(life is a jigsaw puzzle...)

what it appears we actually need to locate first are the editorials/reviews of the albums. the "black boxes" are lyrics from songs, most likely the ones the reviews are talking about. so far, I've got the following bands, in this order:
1. get up and go reference=Hanson
2.full disclosure=fugazi
3. I don't live to please you= ...?
4. measurement= saosin (?)
for some reason, the hanson one just doesn't seem right, and I have a felling I might be wrong. mayhap we google editorials and such on albums?

you can also find their names on the "listen" page of silverladder

spec ramblings Maybe it doesn't have anything to do with the words. The first thing i see is "Disassociate and look for greener grass." If you remove all the words you are left with pictures. I only saw green grass on one. It's saved as jardin.jpg on this page : http://www.silverladder.com/diamonds/2d/darkhall6.htm
Maybe this will help someone else to see something and then maybe it's way off base. If it is, then I'm sorry for any confusion I caused.
