"Most bizarre would have to be the tale of the website which, when you view it, you lose your mind. Perhaps it's subliminal content, or bizarre and terrifying scenes, but those who look at it are drawn in, unable to tear themselves away, and the further into the site they go the further from reality they get. Eventually the surfer undergoes a psychotic break."

One reality maybe

Yeah, I had similar thoughts and also tried many of the above combinations, and in addition tried

and
http://www.cambridgementalhospital.com/outside.html

Again, none of them worked.

That story does seem suspicious, but it could just be a red herring I suppose *shrug* Anyone got any other ideas?

I concur with Rob in that it's probably just a slight jab at the computer obsessed. Smile

There's an update on Urban Mythology folks... checking it now Very Happy

Okay, so there's a story sent in by Varin... plus the following:

Omniscient Mater
"A former Mafioso was taken into the Federal Witness Protection Program after testifying against his partners in crime. He was given a new identity, plastic surgery, clothing, job, and housing. A month after the move, he checked his mail and found a letter from his alma mater university, asking for funds. The letter was addressed to his real name."

and a very long one about the number Seven (http://www.urbanmythology.net/legends/seven.html). Anyone see anything that might be a clue?

An Austrailian serial killer who kills again in Scotland? Yeah, right.

Still, it's a not-so-subtle clue that the number seven may be important... not that it helps much, people have a subconcious need to seek out the number seven anyway...

Surprisingly, this Mad Dog fellow seems to be a real person. He's all OVER Google on legit news sites, so he's probably not connected. The 7, however, looks very odd, like it came off a bar code or one of those optical illusion pictures. I don't know what that means.

I do believe that the PMs may be having a jibe at the ILBs game with their article on the number 7.

Who else lately has been more obsessed with this number than those trying to connect ILB to Bungie? Smile
