Number Puzzle from a Jericho ARG
It's an obviously fan made game, but I'm having fun.

This ARG is already a few months in, but here goes.

We translated some incomplete binary on a postcard, and it led to an email address. When we emailed, we were offered this response.

5 01 3 02 2 04 04 9

02< 8< 6 15 02 02 12

17 7 02 15 02 21 04 05 19 03 10 10 2 02 6 03 12 17 04 16 02 02 17 7 02 01 12 16 19 02 15<

Simple substitution.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Is there an "Ed Green" (or, more correctly, "E. D. Green") in your game?
Apparently, if you check his facebook, you'll begin to see the answer.

to answer Rogi's question, the game is based on this show and the name can be inferred from there.

(the spoiler tag might imply the solution was being given to you directly, but it's paraphrased) Literal translation:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

where 01=A, 02=E, 03=I, 04=O, 05=U, and 2=B, 3=C, 4=D, 5=F, etc.
