Mardeaux--
Thanks for sending that email. I've been going in circles with different sets of numbers.

Hi! It's funny that you mention my CAS# emails. I just got the following reply back from Mr. Kressig...

wouldn't you kick yourself if he actually is blind

[Mardeaux]

Wow. It looks like Dr. Kressig is working late. Things must be extremely stressful at the Passionix labs. This was sent to me just now, 10:59P PDT...

I think that might perhaps just be a hint to use the form to get to the rejected FAQ with the Passionix ingredients... bringing us back to the CAS RNs.

[Mardeaux]

Bruce, I think you're right. We've come back full circle and I think we just need to figure out the correct CAS numbers and mash the numbers together properly. I've tried every conceivable combination I could think of to no avail.

We do, however, have a likely confirmation on one fact. I do believe that Douglas Kressig is Karmacist. Here's his last (and probably really last) reply to me on the Passionix topic - sent this morning at 8:37A PDT.

Hey, new girl here. My youth pastor told me about Citizens of Virtue yesterday, so I've been trying to catch up.

One thing I noticed in Kressig's last e-mail that may or may not mean anything is where he says "putting a strike through that emotion," which sounds like drawing a line through something. Could he mean that there are clues that you have to strike through to uncover?

As for today's DI, the first thing that jumps out at me is that they misspelled "what" in the last line as "hwat." Perhaps they're indicating that some of the other letters need to be shifted around? Or it could be saying "lift to you one weed" if you looked at the first word of each line and replaced the "h" in "heed" with a "w." That could be referring to the warning about how Passionix reacts badly with cannabinoids? Not sure how that would fit in or if I'm just being crazy here. XD

Another thing about the video for Kindness that stuck out at me which may or may not help render any clues is that, while the reference verse is in Matthew, Pastor Grace gives the blind man a coat and tells him to "be safe and warm as you pledge your service to the Lord." This could refer to the passage in the book of James.

A thought on today's DI ... possibly not right, but if not, it might be close enough to get somebody else on the right track:

just a reminder, let's try to keep spoiler tags for actual spoilers - solutions or sensitive plot revelations; theories and speculation aren't spoilers, and just makes a thread tedious to read when they're all hidden
tnx!

[catherwood]

I haven't missed the solvation yet, have I? I only just now had the chance to look -- what stands out for me are all of the H words, and the "hwat" is just a pointer back to them.

I think this is a fairly solid solution:

[Qaqaq]

That's an interesting solution, but it seems too complicated, and not really in the style of a lot of the past solutions.

Also, I wouldn't put much stock in "hwat" -- we've seen a number of typos in the DIs so far, and I expect this is just another one.

[Mardeaux]

No solutions from me yet, but some ideas that might spur someone to greatness I cannot seem to achieve myself. heh.
