Don't struggle too hard on it - any plausible solution to that puzzle probably wouldn't make sense anyways. Focus on RK's puzzle, which should have a real solution to it.

For a second there, I thought your example (I am assuming that's what it is) was actually something you had decoded from RK's puzzle...

Good news on new puzzle information - I did some Googling and happened upon what the loop as written does:
http://haroonsaeed.wordpress.com/2006/06/13/58/
Also read the comments.
The loop is designed to produce output from 1 to n and then from n-1 back to 1. So the results would look something like this:
Code:

1 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4 5 4 3 2 1


I'll make another post once I figure out what we're supposed to do with it.

If you look through the email list, it's also sent to Nate and Jay. My computer is broken (I'm checking in through my PS3's browser) and I can't send emails unless I steal my sister's laptop again. Can anyone or has anyone sent emails to them about this yet?

That was it, Kayberry! If you fish out all of the letters from RK's 11x20 letter grid that correspond with the 1's, you get the following message:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
IAMTHECONCEPTOFTHEMIND


or...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I AM THE CONCEPT OF THE MIND


I tried the same thing with all of the 2's, 3's, etc., but didn't get anything intelligible.

So, does that mean anything to anyone?

Alathan great solve! Way to take the information Kayberry found and make it work.
