 		[EMAIL] To Ron, Ed, and Jaime, RE: Dread House Site/Mirror
Here's the e-mails I sent out.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Ron,

TT screwed up. While restoring the site, they posted the info they
had on Dread House. It's mirrored here:
http://www.walkergroup.com/dreadhouse. According to the third memo,
we have the password for those files. It's tragoedia. Hope this
helps, and hope you're still safe. BTW, this site here has a write up
about the Gold Mine you might want to check out:
www.strangerthanfictionmagazine.com.

Ed,
TT dropped the ball...here's a mirror for the info they put up while
restoring their site: http://www.walkergroup.com/dreadhouse/


Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Jaime,

TT screwed up. THey posted the backups for the Dread House site.
There's a mirror here: http://www.walkergroup.com/dreadhouse/. The
picture for your brother isn't there...there's something else. I
don't know what it means...but I'm sorry.


I'll post any responses here as well when/if they arrive.

 		Anyone else notice that the MCyphers photo is a stereogram?
http://www.walkergroup.com/dreadhouse/graphics/dhcmichaelcyphers.jpg

Looks like a skeleton standing with its arms out to the side.

[edit]
It's too late for me to look into this any deeper, but there is a contestent with the name "Bartholomew". Wasn't that the name of someone quoted in one of the news clippings? I'm probably just imagining things. Sorry if this is in the wrong thread.

There was a Bartholomew quoted in the first newspaper clipping we got way back when, but he appeared to be some sort of policeman/sheriff type from that. *shrug*

Just to make sure everyone's clear, I didn't actually mirror everything, that was all DeathPrawn's doing so make sure to thank him for the good work!

 		Reply From Ron
Got a reply from Ron a few minutes ago...here it is

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
xxxxx:

Thanks for alerting me to what happened to the Tomorrow's Talk site a couple of nights ago. I did a little discrete checking and found out that they hired some temporary IT guy to do the system restore for them and it looks like he botched things up good. But still, I wonder how something like that could happen, especially since I also heard that the big boss himself, Mark Robinson, was there to oversee the whole thing.

It's funny too that shortly thereafter the www.urbanmythology.net site got hacked. And now I've been having trouble accessing my sites as well. They haven't gone down entirely but I am having trouble logging in to upload files and so on. That's what has kept me from getting that third encrypted file online. Coincidence or something more? Luckily I can still access this e-mail address through the webmail interface.

BTW, thanks for that password for the third file. I will try it as soon as I can and let you know what I find.

I did meet up with Jaimie and we are headed to Gold Hill right after I finish these e-mails. I hope to get access to the Gold Mine Hotel tomorrow, thinking there might not be construction going on there over the weekend. I'll keep you posted on how everything goes, of course.

Thanks for your help and please watch your back. It seems Tomorrow's Talk is getting more desperate every day.

Ron

Thanks for your help and please watch your back. BTW, I am thinking we may need to resort to more immediate methods of communicating in the near future. Do you have a phone number (you may have already sent it to me, I know) or AIM name I can use to try and contact you? Or even a number for SMS messaging? If you do, send them to me so I have them, OK?.

Ron

KC,


Yes, what happened with the Tomorrow's Talk site a couple of nights
ago was strange, to say the least. I did a little discrete checking and
found out that they hired some temporary IT guy to do the system
restore for them and it looks like he botched things up good. But
still, I wonder how something like that could happen, especially
since I also heard that the big boss himself, Mark Robinson, was there
to oversee the whole thing.


It's funny too that shortly thereafter the href="http://www.urbanmythology.net">www.urbanmythology.net site
got hacked. And now I've been having trouble accessing my sites as
well. They haven't gone down entirely but I am having trouble logging
in to upload files and so on. That's what has kept me from getting that
third encrypted file and its contents online. Coincidence or something
more? Luckily I can still access this e-mail address through the
webmail interface.

I did meet up with Jaimie and, even though she's obviously under a
lot of stress with this whole affair, I don't think we need to worry
about her. She's smart and brave - and pretty too Smile - and
committed to seeing this through to the end. We are headed to Gold Hill
right after I finish these e-mails and hope to get access to the
Gold Mine Hotel tomorrow, thinking there might not be construction
going on there over the weekend. I'll keep you posted on how everything
goes, of course.

Thanks for your help, man, and please watch your back. It seems
Tomorrow's Talk is getting more desperate every day.

[SPAM] Band On The Run

Ron,

There was a
major...something...last night. The Dread House subsite (the one
designed by Ed Vargas) made a startling and brief return at TT's site
last night. If you haven't seen it yet, one of us managed to snag it
and archive what he could at http://www.walkergroup.com/dreadhouse/ .
Fairly frightening stuff. Now, more than anytime else before is the
time to keep your head down, kemo sabe.

Also, be
careful with Jamie. She seems to be coming a little unwound at
time goes on. I don't think there's any direct danger involved, but
just keep an eye out. This whole Infrasound/40Hz thing worries the hell
out of me, and GMH seems to be yet another home for it.


And be damned sure you don't tell ANYONE there a
single thing about yourself.

Stay low and frosty, Ron.
And stay in touch. We're all in this together.
-KC
