 		Not that it does all that much good now, but here is a direct screen capture of the email. It just goes to show you that even the best plans are subversable. The users computer is enemy territory.

 		What is Self Destructing email
I've never seen this before. What a gas.

Here's the blurb at the site.

Nice usage. Gotta say that this game is full of surprises.

Subject: Second Step?

A symbol is ever, to him who has eyes for it, some dimmer or clearer revelation of the God-like.

The very basis of language is metaphorical. We usually distinguish things by comparison; our basic description of the world around us is full of examples.

When we ask, "What is it?", we tend to reply by making a comparison: we say it is like another thing which resembles it in some way, real or imagined. Within the described thing, object or quality, we seek some character by which it can be fitted into some human conceptual framework.

Like language, the alphabet is a metaphysical description of reality. Letters
in an alphabet are metaphors for reality. Many different alphabets use the same shape-forms to represent different phonetic sounds, or different concepts.

Others use multiple symbols for the same phonetic sound. To suggest, as some people have done, that certain specific uses are correct, and that others are wrong, is a form of cultural arrogance. Overall, these alphabets can be viewed in the same way as languages, in which quite different words and syntax may be used to describe the same objective phenomena. None is any better then the other, but one or other may be more appropriate under different circumstances.

A while back, we figured a way to get to the guides (the solve is in the puzzles section here) and they said "let us know how to contact you."

Some of us sent an email to guidesSPLATmythosphere.org and are on their spam list now for things like this.

Hopefully, some webcrawling spider has picked up their address by now from our unfiction posts and they're getting mail advertising lower interest rates and penis enlargers.
