Of course that doesn't mean we can't take guesses based upon what we currently have. And we can also try getting better pictures of the strips taken to double-check and improve on the pictures that we have now.


the last part looks like the word "city"...colorado city? new york city? oklahoma city?

All codes seperated, not sure if they should be in a particular order.
Thanks to madapol for the psd. file

I like what madapol has done, but for some reason they don't quite overlay the same way Bruce's pic. does. Not sure why. There appears to be some minor spacing errors in madapol's work. (That's assuming Bruce's work is the more accurate of the two. It could be Bruce's pic. is the more inaccurate, but I don't think so.)

Here's Bruce's work on top and madapol's beneath it.
They're not quite the same thing. Both are awesome and reflect some excellent work on the part of both of them, but the question is, who's is the more accurate?

I'm at work and can't spend a lot of time on it, but at least one of madopal's dots is off based on the scans provided by mach1monorail.
The 2nd red dot needs to move to the right.

Well, this was more difficult than I thought it would be, but here's my crack at overlaying them. I'm of the opinion that we need to stick 'em into a card reader and the four will turn out to be some phrase or something (one word each maybe) that combine into a sentence.

Maybe if we program it into some sort of CAD program, a force-sphere will appear in midair which we can use for space travel.

Is there a possibility of anyone graphing out the bar codes on the front image of the cards? I've lined up mine and my friend's and comparing them. It may help to get an idea of how they look when lined up. Also, if there's any difference between one copy of (for example) Kraz-bot and another. That might help determine if they're important or not.
