So you have no idea who you are or where you are? What do you see around you?


Think i've just been cut off from whoever she'd put me in contact with. Either that or she's REALLY picky about the way i'm talking to them. Asked if they still need some help, and hoping to get through. Don't see what was wrong with the context though...

Nah I've gotten that too. After that failed command prompt access thing, I've been going back and forth with iris and now she's starting to freak me out a bit.

Well the odd thing is that "Elizabeth" actually answered me once:

So is it enough to say there's two personalities in the machine?

Could very well be. And seen as this person doesn't know where they are, I think I could have been in contact with her as well.

Interesting. Had any responses since you last emailed her?

 		Craig's Dead but Still Blogging
Hey All. I've been lurking for some time, but decided to jump in with a theory.

Fact: Craig, despite being dead for two months plus, still manages to update his blog.

It stands to reason that his consciousness must have been incorporated into the biocomputer he was working on. His past comments suggest this was part of a larger plan on his part.

Fact: IRIs appears to have incorporated Elizabeth's consciousness and to some extent maintains emotional ties to both Craig and Shanna ("My.Darling" and such).

It stands to reason that if Craig was instrumental in the creation of the biocomputer that will one day become IRIs and if IRIs by design incorporates part of Craig's dead wife's consciousness, then the authorization code we're looking for may in some way be a series of numbers that is connected to them both.

Bottom line: Craig may know the code or at least be able to assist us in figuring it out. Since he's communicating via the internet in a manner similar to IRIs and we have contact with IRIs, maybe we can contact Craig. I took a shot in the dark and emailed craigSPLATsunshinemine15.com, but received no response. Anyone have any ideas re contacting Craig?

Cheers

In addition with

this suggests he pre-planned that blog entries and let send em automatically. It does not means necessarily he lives into the system.

New query, this time an direct approach Wink

This could be a stretch but...

According to Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Hades is the Abode of the Dead. Hades (the place not the greek god) contains a large pit called Tartarus. Not a nice place to visit cause it is essentially Hell.


In Roman mythology, an entrance to the underworld located at Avernus, a crater near Cumae.

Either Tartaus or Avernus could be concidered a "large bowl"

 		We need that code :(
Since I got through to Nikolai Verve emailing IRis I continued to refer to IRis as Nikolai and since he instructed me to Contact the Office of Engineering at Tesla Tower I tried to inquire further about it but I asked to many questions so I shortened it up and IRis cleary showed me that if we got the 14 character code we could potentially save Nikolai and whoever else is in there.

Thanks Nikolai we are trying our best. How do we contact the office engineer at the Des Moines Tesla Tower? Are there other survivors? Where is platform 15?

Lol...one semester of Russian in college. As long as you need me to say "What is that?", "My name is", or "Why grandmother couch newspaper lesson", I'm good. Very Happy

 		I think we've been spending more time on the code than what the PMs expected/wanted. According to IRis's replies, it seems we should hurry up.

But I still don't think we're much closer to finding the answer.

I think you're right, but I have absolutely no idea how to proceed.

Also, IRis is bouncing again today. Shocked
