So the plot is something like this? The Japenese and the Russians are waging battle with the Aliens in A secret "Kitchen Stadium" to see who makes the best whale dish?

 		I have no idea about this whole new whale thing, but I did notice that (if the black and white photo found on KSWI's website is related to the Black Dragon Society) Kyoto, Japan is both: (1) a location of one of KSW's "labs?" and (2) the location of the Green Dragon's Temple.

FYI the Green Dragons are the Inner Circle of the Black Dragon Society

 		Nice connection. Maybe we need to figure out just who is in that photo.

 		The book thing...

Yes, the big R is the printer's logo, sort of. I'm *hoping* that the particular edition won't matter since Routledge & sons produced a bunch of pirated version (no int'l copyright) w/o dates between ~1885 and 1900. It would be typical to break the type between the editions, esp. 1st & 2nd when you don't know if the book will sell or not. This means the editions might (probably would) have different pagination. For a partial list, see: http://www.julesverne.ca/vernebooks/jvbkjourney.html

On the other hand Project Guttenberg has it.

Kyoto - black dragon/whaling?

 		OK, people, actually we NEED to get that book edition.

I've got new email from Institute:

Quote:
Use Verne
Edition Clarification: [77,13. 1-4] = HANS

MESSAGE:
[56,3.8][57,4.2][57,1.1][56,1.8][57,3.2][58,1.4][59,1.1][60,5.1][61,2.2][62,14.4][63,2,3][66,1.1][67,3.3] [68,1.4][69,1.3][70,2.3][74,1.1][74,2.2][75,2.6][76,2.1][85,1.2][85,1.1][88,1.2][89,1.3][92,1.2][93,1.1][93,3.1][92,1.1][98,1.2]

Use Same Method And Book Code For Further Communications.


Explaining:

Quote:
Edition Clarification: [77,13. 1-4] = HANS

means
we need an Edition, where on the page 77, line 13, the first four letters are HANS. It's really not difficult, because Hans Bjelke is one of the characters of this roman.

The message should we pick up page for page, line for line, letter for letter in the same way.

FAZIT: If you find the book, insure yourself, that page 77, line 13 contains the word HANS. Otherwise it's another edition and the whole coding won't work.

And, there was an audio file attached, I've uploaded it at imeem.net
http://profile.imeem.com/c4BLRXX/music/_yTK7dz8/01mp3/

I'm analysing the file right now.

I've breaked the code in the middle for avoiding the exploding the frames, but the code was without spaces in one line posted to me.

 		OK, the song in that sound file is by Zarah Leander, "Davon geht die Welt nicht unter" (Still the world does not collaps)

http://ingeb.org/Lieder/wennmalm.html
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzIAPIuEBpo (German version of the song with English subtitles)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zarah_Leander

From wiki:

Quote:
In 1942, in the midst of a burning war, Zarah scored the two biggest hits of her recording career- in her signature deep voice, she sang her anthems of hope and survival; "Davon geht die Welt nicht unter" & "Ich weiß, es wird einmal ein Wunder gescheh'n". These 2 songs in particular are often served up in documentaries of today as obvious examples of effective Nazi Propaganda at work - however, it should be noted that Zarah's performance on these tracks, along with countless other hits she had all over Europe, was nothing short of extraordinary, and certainly struck a chord with the German people.


There also a Japanese speech (1:54 to 2:02), I've to analyse it.

Ok I'm off to the library to look at all of the printings.

 		Apparently imeem requires you to sign up to listen to the whole file... is there a way you could attach it to a post so that we all can listen without having to sign up for yet another website. Pretty please.
