Excellent job Albany! I tried about a million things in the url, but never thought to try emerson. Bravo.

Edit to avoid double posting:

Random idea....could archive one perhaps mean the first blog entry? It was last to be scrambled/encoded.....maybe we can find "new words".


Something definitely changed, all the html in the archive has a timestamp of Feb 28 22:22. That's not very long ago.

I'm scouring through there, but not coming up with anything. Perhaps some of the words in the slashes are keys to decipher the text.

 		Looks like we have this

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
awake eams eare eisw henw indr ourt rues tlif


Lots of possibilities there. Including the second words being dreams. Which leads me to re arrange these where we get.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
tlif eisw henw eare indr eams ourt rues awake
OR
t life is when we are in dreams our trues awake


It may be some variation of that, but it seems the most logical for me at 10:30 am est... lol

Dreams and awake stood out to me also, trying to figure out the method for rearranging the letters. There has to be some way to figure out how to slide the letters around, especially given their order, as it would take forever to come up with all the possible combinations from the word groups we already have...just have to figure out the key...

 		Nice work! I'm guessing it should be the Thoreau quote:

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.

 		Heh, MrToasty is always beating us to the puzzles...

I'm thinking if we can find the book or whatever the quote was first said and enter that after http://wirebcze.50webs.com...

Dregyn gets full credit for the solution, I just cleaned it up a bit Wink

The quote seems to be from "A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers," particularly from the end of Wednesday if that makes any difference.
