The source now states:
Code:
<KAFKAWROTEIT>

I did a quick search on Kafka attempting to find "to hatch new hatred" and came up with zilch (but litterally a minuete of searching Wink ). Beyond that, I have not begun to research my man Franz Kafka. For now, its beddy bye time.

 		Saw this Kafka quote:
Quote:
All too often men are betrayed by the word freedom. And as freedom is counted among the most sublime feelings, so the corresponding disillusionment can be also sublime.
–"A Report to an Academy"

That caught my eye due to the phone message changing from "Freedom" to static (I think).
Beyond that, I have not begun to research my man Franz Kafka. For now, its beddy bye time.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post. Deleted the redundant re-quotes.

 		"KAFKAWROTEIT" and "pupa" are the keys to the new page metamorphosis. Also <3 the Jane McGonigal shout out. Cool

 		"Hatch" reminds me of the egg on the equinox page, making me wonder if there's a connection there. Did we hatch new hatred by d when we freed mona?

 		for the sake of question... anyone able to think of a bearing significance in the repetition of <TAINTED> in 6 sets of 6? There's 36 of it and it's separated at an index of 6.

--The following moves nothing 'forward" it's just things I've tried.--

It just... feels too perfect and thus intentional.

So I've done some digging for kicks... into the WORSE number... and base 36 conversions... and have found, likely nothing startlingly new...

231518195 - if not "WORSE" --- it is a Virginia SSN number, the person registered to it is not in the deceased peoples database.

as well, the concept of Margarete Petrautzki being the Margaret in VITS I checked on Konstantin Raudive on Wikipedia. This grabbed my attention.

Quote:
"The voice entities speak very rapidly, in a mixture of languages, sometimes as many as five or six in one sentence."


I tried converting 231518195 from standard Base 10 to Base 36 which gave me "3tu8kz" This hasn't yielded any new pages or locations.. but I just figured I'd post where my mind has been with the topic.
