 Ello and such

[A PRIZED MULE!]

I used to work for a major medical electronics company called Marquette Electronics that was based in Wisconsin. They were eventually bought by GE.

The font used on the cover of the Reasonable Haven booklet is very close if not the same as Marquette's. I've been looking and I wish I could find a better example but I swear it's almost the same font.



Probably nothing, but maybe something. It jumped out at me.

About Battlestar - I don't think this really fits them, it's a little too goofy. Then again, it's entirely possible what with how utterly creepy it's got lately.

@Jimmy Page - Pregnancy lasts actually more usually up to ten months (I know, shock and awe!), so your theory might be a solid one, or they might have just chosen an arbitrary not-quite-a-year period of time. I think it's unlikely there's much of this that's actually arbitrary (except the phone ad-libbing at times), so I would definitely follow up on that one.

Not sure if any of this is helpful, but other stuff I noticed that I haven't seen mentioned:

- In the Verify scene, the guy with glasses stands and holds his arms in a manner which would signify the letter "B" in semaphore. Adding importance to the second "B" in Bonub on the alarm box. Additionally this shows that the MTC is using semaphores. I have been looking for other places for it but haven't found anything good yet (Dark Dollar positions on the inside cover of M:RH doesn't quite fit).

- The Golden map: Those lines are not lat/long lines. They are range lines you would draw with a compass on a map. So the 5 arcs on the map could be used to indicate 4-5 points by completing the arcs as a circle and finding their midpoint(correspond to the active cities maybe?)

Okay, I came out of nowhere up there, haha. Read this entire thread and the corresponding ones last night, took a few notes, saved the book, etc. Decided to register this morning.

There's a few things I noticed that I don't remember being mentioned or brought up before...

The "come for the weekend, stay for LIFE" part of the video is incredibly eerie. The way it's said, at least, comes off as almost deranged, though that's probably my own imagination. Regardless, has anyone heard any news of people moving away from Milwaukee after moving back?

Would there be any significance to the R NO bar being on [L?]eeker st.? It's possible it was just a street name that means nothing, but I thought I would bring it up.

I have a pretty bright monitor [when everyone was wondering if there were "teeth" in the picture of the man and the woman's hair during the bar scene, I saw it from the original image before any brightening was made] and in 10:58 I could swear there's something behind the fence. Again, probably nothing, probably just an oddly shaped tree.

Why would they be offering so much housing in the Canning District? Every time [I've noticed] that someone calls Joey, he offers a place in the Canning District. If I read right, it was underneath the canning district that they buried Go.D.S.E.E.D... Wouldn't that be a bit dangerous? Does that strike anyone else as odd?

Also, does anyone know if there was any significance to Terry handing the treasure hunter a sort of red gem after [so obviously faking] being concerned about his digging, then "giving in"?

Oh, and if anyone gets time to ask questions over the phone [I might once I work up the courage, I always get so flustered over the phone] they should try asking about any available 'places of worship' for their 'specific religion'. I almost think someone should bring up Wicca, because I remember reading something about Wichita and Milwaukee and an outrage involving "witches" [wiccans, really], but that might have been OOG.
I also think an easier way to ask about non-human sex would be to mention you're single and looking for an "exotic" 'romance' scene.
I think it would be interesting if someone mentioned their son just ate their family tree, too, and see how Joey or Mike reacts, but I'm not sure how you could go about that without sounding strange, since I doubt someone living in Milwaukee would call the tourism department for that.
