Well here's a list of the possibilities the numbers could mean.

007 being the page number and each number below being (x) on that page
007 being the seventh (y) on each page number


or 007 being the clue that James Bond is going to come along and solve this for us.... Razz

 		Well, mariska just gave me the brushoff, replying with the off the grid message.

Too bad, because I've stopped driving myself batty counting characters or staring at anagrams until the constraints on what we're looking for become clearer.

Mariska definitely needs to narrow things down a bit. =\

I'll try forming a question up that she won't "off grid" me with, but I'm not on a computer with email access right now, so I'll try later.

 		Well, I made some progress, although I'm beyond annoyed (at myself and at this game)...

I sent another message to Mariska, and this time she responded with this:

The bold underlines are my additions.

Obviously, this is the text from page 7, no punctuation, no spaces. The marked characters (from the clue on the /9780316022101/ page) give us:

sullenmonuments

which takes us to:

http://the-electric-church.com/sullenmonuments/

(if you check out my previous post here you'll see that I came very close, but somewhere I got off by one letter... grrrr!)

Anyway, the new page has this:

..._._-._-.. (Morse code for SEND)

which is a link to this:

http://the-electric-church.com/sullenmonuments/4jjaksiram.wmv

This little vid has the following:

POBOX 3024 HOBOKEN NJ 07030


so what are we supposed to send there?

 		1) yes

2) yes

3) I don't know, could be Smile If you've read the book, that'd make sense.


Maybe we're supposed to send a burning zombie to that address...

 		Hrm okay.... what kind of help does she need that we can send? I'm guessing that they don't want us to send the police to that address... Smile

 		That ICQ was there before, and it doesn't seem to work.

But who is this Odessa-086 person??

 		An alien ^.^ Well actually, probably not. Below are the things that ive researched.

Odessa-086 is #1
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://hamilton.dm.unipi.it/cgi-bin/astdys/astibo?sites:086;main


Info on AstDys can be found at the main page here

It could also be this barn #2

Or a person who didn't/doesn't know what they are getting involved with #3
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://odessa-086.napalmriot.com/



My belief is #3 personally. I hope I didn't frighten someone making them think I'm stalking them ^.^ Oh Also I'm preparing to send a letter or 2 to the address above, but I'm going to see if a few things pan out first. Mabye find out what im supposed to send. Though I have some ideas.

For now I'm off. "The Wolf" wants to eat a cookie, then to go to sleep.

 		I think you may have found Odessa-086 with your last last link there Wolf, with all of the Electric Church references and all, but she looks to be OOG.
