 		If you add the spaces to the hex for both the top and bottom codes, and use the XOR calculator here, you'll get the same message I got.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Richie must find his peers for help. I cannot be the one to show him.

 		I got this from Pers

Greetings again. I assume you have been receiving the same e-mails
from Richie I have? Do you hae any idea where he may be hiding? I
would like to get to him before the "black hats" do.


Since Pers is Richie's peers I want to tell him where Richie is. I guess Richie hides in his school. Am I right?
Or does he hide in this swine creek reservation?

 		Double checked the coordinates Richard provided on the "swinecreeksign.jpg" on Google Maps. It's the intersection of Hayes Rd. and a smaller road into the reservation. (prolly next to that sign)

While it's all open terrain, it would make an isolated meeting spot for someone arriving by car.
ETA: used "look under that path" as an extension on the NLI and RUaWW sites with no joy. Sent a lil tweet to RUaWW also.

Oh, you just made me remember that one of the paths we took on RUAWerewolf, was ThePathYouWillTake. Clicking on the glyphs takes you to an image called UNDER.gif. Not sure how to decode it, or if it's been stegged.

ETA* I was able to figure out how to read the barcode thingie...

 		Since no one replied to my question above, I have sent an email to Pers saying that I think Richard is in his school (or maybe at swine creek).

Nice find, enaxor Rock On
How did you decode this barcode?

Sorry, I meant to answer your question, I think Richard is at Swine Creek.

You need to read the barcode in columns from top to bottom, starting on the left. The colored squares are 0's and the black squares are 1's. Next step is to convert the binary to Hex.

Code:
0 0 0 0 1 0 0 1
0 1 0 0 0 1 1 0
1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1
1 1 1 0 1 1 0 0
---------------
3 5 1 0 9 7 6 A

 		Indeed, AUZ, was also attempting to answer your query by saying that Richard's coords made for a nice, solated meeting place. Sad but mostly posting to say....

agree Enaxor's find and especially her method of converting it are totally bril work.

 		Thanks for the explaination.

Now we are at least in the discussion phase Wink
Why do you think so. I assumed this Swine Creek was the place were the accident (murder!) happened. Do you think he hides were Tony was attacked?
I am not sure if there is a Janitor and a PC room with an old P3 with firewall.

I was looking at the email that Richard sent me where he says:

Quote:
Thanks, as if I didn't have a enough trouble sleeping here. Swine Creek of all places? I've probably hiked right past where. . . Damn, I don't want to be thinking of that right now.

And I should be safe from the black hats, I've been hiding out here since Monday, and no black Hummers. Considering my past history, I don't think anyone's going to look for me here. Just got to avoid the janitor. Unfortunately, my cell-phone died sometime last night. So the only communication I have is this crap-ass slow P3 that someone probably picked up at a yard sale, and it's got some sort of web filter blocking half the Internet. (Including that NLI site, probably saw a word it didn't like.)


I was thinking he was saying he was at Swine Creek, but now that I reread it, I realize he was just talking about it being the place Tony was attacked. I think your idea that he is hiding at his school, is correct. He does say "Considering my past history, I don't think anyone's going to look for me here." He did get suspended from shcool for fighting with Tony. And as you mention, the janitor comment would very much point to his school.

Now to figure out what the maze is suppose to lead to. After running the maze, I'm pretty sure I see letters in there, but can't make heads nor tails out of them. I'll scan a copy in a bit and post it.

ETA Scan of completed maze. I sorta see an F E G.

 		Here is my thinking for a solve technique (I'll spoiler it)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The chart in the urlismissing.tif tells us the key to use. Days are across the top, and months are down the side. The table entries are Psalm chapter/verse.

For July 7, it should be 6/2. I tried XORing the hex version of the latin (from the tinyurl site) with the hex from dotheyknow.tif, but didn't get anything intelligible. Maybe I made a mistake, or only have part of the technique. I don't know why certain numbers are circled, for one thing.


ETA:
Here is the hex from the image, in case you don't want to type it out yourself
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
24 16 0B 58 0A 11 0A 06 57 02 1E 45 10 15 10 51 50 05 17 13 43
