 		Oh, sorry, he is offline now.
But we had interesting conversation.

I'll mark the most important things:

John Blacksmith

Quote:
Ich: Hi John
John: Hey vlad
Ich: How are you?
John: how do you think i am?
sorry to be rude, but i am not feeling well at all
Ich: oh sorry
I've read your blog
I'm very sorry
John: is ok, thank you for helping out
Ich: I want to help in everything
Do you have got the password?
John: yeah, i sent it to my friend but i think he hasnt had time to try them out.
anything else that you guys are working on?
Ich: well, we had some news
don't know, whether you know,
Yori is back
this Japanese girl
John: really?
is she allright?
Ich: well, she is alive,
but they seem to steal her memories
I mean, she cannot remind anything
John: at all?
maybe they just hit her head with something
Ich: well, I have written some mails to her
and she seems to be mentally OK
but she cannot recall
anything from her last day
in the office
John: must be under trauma. i have no idea where to go from here
we ahve 4 days left?
Ich: Yes, we have to hurry up,
but take care of you
your health is the most important thning
John: i really doubt that there is something i can do about it
is there anything that i can help out with?
anything that you guys are looking for
Ich: Yes, perhaps...
We are searching for the article of McConnell now
PLANARIA: MEMORY TRANSFER THROUGH CANNIBALISM
John: mmmh.. that sounds familiar.
i think thats a book he was talking about around last christmas
i am going to call my friend at the library and make them check erics library record
ill send you the list of the books that he checked out. is there someone that you know in college station?
i really dont want to get others into this.
Ich: Oh thank you!
John: do you have anyone in college station?
he might have left something there now that i am thinking about it
Ich: Well, I am at the moment in germany,
but I can ask my friends
who are working with you and me
on this case
John: ok.
where in germany are you?
there was an address of their former HQ in berlin
Ich: I'm in Frankfurt am Main
Oh
Do you have this address?
John: no, i just remember seeying it on the first junker corp website.
might have been nothing
well ill get you that book list as soon as i can
Ich: thank you!
Do you have got that picture fropm Russian girl?
I mean, this puzzle
John: the verandi thing/
yeah, but i have no idea what its for
Ich: OK
As I've chatted with Yori
her last night
she said, the picture with a woman
were the code to Tengu
John: maybe those are the activation codes.
Ich: And Junkers has stolen this picture
yes, seems to be
John: well takeda made the things didnt they?
Ich: yes,
John: so i guess they needed the code to get control of them
Ich: yes, it's very reasonable
and
Takeda seems to be splittered by Junkerts
their Chief was found dead (killed?)
so I think, perhaps they wanted to stop it
John: yeah
So i guess Junkers have everything they need
just a little bit of time to get the last things ready
Ich: how can we stop them?..
John: i am thinking that the CD holds the clue.
or something
Ich: Yes, indeed
John: i have no idea
Ich: You has great job
with the whole pictures and crossword
because - even if we don't know what is it -
we have the letters
John: maybe we will get something important from erics library record
well see
Ich: Oh yeah
John: i checked the book you are looking for on wikipedia
and the scientist guy
Ich: yes, do you have find something?
John: no, just interesting that the unabomber wanted to kill him
Ich: yes, it is!
I also came across it
Perhaps we have read unabombers manifest?...
John: well i haveto go now, ill send you the list a soon as i receive it
mmmh...
wasnt he anti techonology?
Ich: yes, he was
hmm...
John: aurora?
i have no idea.
Ich: I've to think bout it
John: i dont think junker is anti technology
they have whatever the tengus are
well keep working on it, ill send the list when ever i get it.
Ich: thanx
and take care
John: you too
be careful
Ich: Thank you
cu

John ist offline.

 		Awesome job. Has to be one more thing at the library. *crosses fingers*
Although if I remember correctly, didn't Eric say he went back to destroy the book or something and it wasn't there anymore? Question

 		I don't remember what he said about the book. I'm very anxious to see Eric's book list!!!!!

Yes, I am in College Station.

ETA: Ok, I went back and checked. Eric did say that he went back to burn the book, but that it was gone. Could be that someone checked it out that day.

I'll have time to check the books in the afternoons. If a large number of of the books in Eric's book history appear to be relevant, I'll have to rummage through a few of them per day.

EDIT: Kos, you should bold this part as well

OK, did it!
Btw, you can write to John, because he seems to look for somebody of us involved in the conspiracy (he don't want to harm his friends).

 		So, did you get anything yet?
Guess so!

ETA base64 filenames. The one you posted translates to:
movieforjohn
Looks like they all do...

Did he say where the files come from?

 		Conversation with John
Chat was broken so we sent e-mails back and forth. The top is the most recent. Our convo begins at the bottom.

Thank you. Good luck to you too, John.

i hope so. the library will be open for a few hours more, so if you have friends on campus, do tell them.

Ill talk to you later, good luck.

Yeah. I'll contact my friends and ask them to go tonight. I'm sure they will. If not, I will go very early in the morning myself. Whatever it is has stayed hidden this long, surely it will remain less than 12 more hours.

i dont think so. i just hope nobody accidentally finds whatever is in those books. mmh.. perhaps its inside the boxes? otherwise it could be anotehr piece of paper with a link to the video.

thats ill i know. i would go, but i am not in CS B.



On Mon, Mar 3, 2008 at 9:08 PM, Tony Love <tonyplove> wrote:

Yeah, that would be my guess too. Is there anything else that you can think of that my be relevant at this moment? I don't want to end our conversation and it be the last time we speak together.

That's what I would think. Any chance a movie is hidden in the place of the books? or is the movie on the jump drive with the pics?

I imagine that the pictures will lead to a small movie? i dont know.

My friends say that the filenames of the pictures can be decoded as saying "Movie for John". Is there a film on the jump drive?

Ok. That would be very nice. I think there is hope that we can get the cure from the Enlightenment Society. Can't they give you an antedote (sp?)?

thats fine, ill still finishing up the list and send it to you.



On Mon, Mar 3, 2008 at 8:55 PM, Tony Love <tonyplove> wrote:

no not tonight. Maybe in the morning though. I have a family so I only can help during spare time. I'm sorry to say that because it sounds as if I don't care about your life. There are others that are intent to help you when I am unable, but I can safely say that I am the most active in this town.



On Mon, Mar 3, 2008 at 8:52 PM, John Blacksmith <bleedingmaroon08> wrote:

its going to take me a bit to type them up. are you going there tonight?

ill write the list right now.

where is the list?

We can talk here instead. Oh I see.

my chat is not working for some reason. i called the library, my friend sent me the list, but they also said that a book was very overdue. she gave me the tittle, and i found it where i keep my books. A flash drive with the pictures.

 		Your name is fine, it's more as to whether you want it out there for everyone to see.

So, is somebody going for it tonight? Not to sound pushy, just curious to know if we need to be on the lookout for more to dissect tonight.
