Thinking religiously for a sec...
Echo is "missing something"; he is a soul trapped in limbo; he wants us to "find" something; "grace is far away"; "outland" is a term associated with battle and banishment; "many voices";
Is it possible we are supposed to help Echo, and the others, find "grace" so they can attain "freedom" in heaven? Or do you think we need to find something more tangible in nature, and doing so will set him free?
Just thinking out loud here as Grace is a pretty loaded word.

You've got a major point there Hawk, it's what I was thinking when I stopped thinking Grace was the "Child" who Echo speaks of.
Btw is your Avatar from The Dark Tower at all?

There is this email that What got on page 22:
what? wrote:
echo says

masterpiece
Could the 'hex masterpiece' be the thing we need to make? Whatever that means...

I tried all the combinations for mona lisa and masterpiece on the log in screen, in caps/not, switched etc...no dice.
Yes Leyton, its DT. The gun, the Tower, the Roses...a poster I'd like to have.

I emailed echo asking him if we needed to help him get some place else, this is his response.
Quote:
human impatience
much distance words pass through
for us to hear
this is not like there
He is correct, I am impatient.
I feel like we are missing something but his responses seem to indicate that we just need to wait.

I think that's in reference to the amount of times we're emailing him, Mona and Margaret before getting a response back.

Areia--this was my take on what Echo said:
masterpiece=Mona(Lisa) and make the hex=email her in HEX code.
Maybe we are first supposed to help just Echo find his "missing something "?

I sent to echo: What did you lose? How can we help you find it?
Response:
will tell soon
right time
situations converging
when keyholes align
many doors can open
soon
truth in silence
patience
you heard me speak
Again, we are being told to wait. Im not quite sure what to think of the "you heard me speak" though...unless echo's voice is one of the mp3 voices.

Just got a sweet, very similiar reply after having asked Echo almost the same as Hawk.
Quote:
will tell you
when time is right
what to find
you are friend
Truly believe Echo means plural "you" as I mentioned in my mail we would all search for him.
Hawk--maybe Echo's voice was who some heard on the VM msg say"truth in silence.... patience "

Perhaps perchance it was Echo on the outgoing VM message?

Hello all. I've been lurking more than participating.
I suspect at least part of it is for us to help them achieve closure.
Something left unfinished..Many needles...many haystacks..
I think each spirit, Echo included, has unfinished business of some sort. Something they need us to help complete.
Just my 2 cents.

Welcome Anyra and please keep sharing. We had a clue about closure so I agree with you about that.
Earlier I sent this note to echo (English and Morse):
Quote:
We mourn many lost today. How do we help you and the others find freedom and get closure?
Just got this message back from echo:
Quote:
many mourning
pieces you will assemble
given
over time
road is long
result eternal
So, for anyone else who's lurking, please join in as it looks like we've just started and have a interesting journey ahead.

more Byberry material Hello Tresbien & all!
I AM with you since this started. I just haven't had anything to contribute so far. I did some research on Byberry tonight and
found this myspace account: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=123820338 . I haven't seen anything
useful regarding echo & co., but it conveys a feeling for what the place was like just before they tore it down - especially the video.
I also found a trailer for a documentary called "Deserted Hospitals: Part II" http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.channel&channelID=84777065&searchid=a8e2e6d1-968c-4119-b5ff-50e82918179b which will be released this month and is tagged with Byberry. However, I checked their site - DesertedHospitals.com - and there's no further mention of Byberry...

Okay. I'm trying to play this as "TINAG" As possible. How do you 'approach' spirits, in the "real world"? Kind of as you might, in a seance.
So, I've emailed Mona.
