 		"1929 - Last Known Event" could relate to when, on June 27th 1929, "The first public demonstration of color TV is held, by H. E. Ives and his colleagues at Bell Telephone Laboratories in New York. The first images are a bouquet of roses and an American flag. A mechanical system is used to transmit 50-line color television images between New York and Washington."

Wireless Color TV broadcasting?

 		Hmm. I beg to differ. I think we are looking for something that was happening up until 1929, but was the last known event.

Something to do with eneegy or harnesssing energy that happened in 1929 maybe? Like a lightning storm or something...

 		Been googling any combination of 1929 Banbury Rollright and Energy without any real success.

Did come across a large number of articles about the 1929 Energy crisis and Krach that caused the great depression, but that doesn't fit because it has occurred twice after that, in the 1990's and 2009 :s

Another interesting tidbit that probably has nothing to do with it are the two major breakthroughs in 1929 according to Wiki:

# 1929 – Edwin Hubble: Hubble's law of the expanding universe
# 1929 – Lars Onsager's reciprocal relations, a potential fourth law of thermodynamics

both sounded Science Fictionally enough to at least mention here....otherwise I have no idea what we're looking for.

 		Wallace's response to my asking what he thought about Mr. Style's motives, the wav. flile and his meeting with Mrs. Maad.

Amandel,

You may have noticed I haven't posted up the password. Haven't had a
chance to have another look at the wav file. What do you make of it?

Yes she is very clever.

Well technically it was yesterday evening, Louise put this site on an
American server thingy which completely messes up the times I post stuff.

Will be posting that soon.

And he's agreeing with my mention that Enaxor is a "clever she". Laughing

Can't quite make out what the words are on the post-it note. "Lo Draclore"??

 		From Mr. Style:
Quote:
Mostly I'm an information broker but I have dabbled in many other areas. Too many to name them all.

And I have access to many experts when I can not get the information myself.

Try asking, maybe I'll give you something for "free".

Lewis.


What should we ask for?

 		Lo Draclore
Anagrams to Local Order, Cellar Door, Cool Larder ...

The pictures are too low res to be of much use. Can't make out book titles too easily. Lot's of Stephen King, L. Ron Hubbard, Terry Pritchett, Dan Brown ...

Photo of a pair of Jugglers?

Maybe we should ask him for better pictures?

Edit:
Since these came from Wallace I doubt that anything has been hidden by him, yet ...

The two pics of the books were taken on 12/19/2007. The ones of the paintings were created on 11/7/2010 and modified 1/11/2011. The post-it pic was created on 1/11/2011. If Wallace took these yesterday then he has either altered the dates or has two cameras set to two different dates. The post-it was most probably scanned.

They haven't been Geotagged. But it's possible that they have been Stegged.

 		Since In Wales Ley Lines are called Dragon Lines am mentioning that "Lo Drac Lore" is "It Dragon Lore" in Catalans.
Dragon Myths are very common in Europe.

Zhirgoyt,

I completely agree about not trusting him his motives are far from clear.

Wireless power, okay wished I had known that when I spoke to Esmeralda
last night. Despite missing a husband she is really hard to pin down when
it comes to contacting her.

Maybe Style will be of use after all, keep digging my friend.

Wallace.

It seems that Wallace thinks we should use Style in some way. How about we ask him for something that he might answer for free? Something that he might need aswell. Can't we ask him if he can get some sort of "expert" on the wav-file?

 		Figured I'd add as much to this as I can with my crappy image viewer Wink
Items I can see lying/standing on the shelves and around. From Left to Right Top to Bottom

Quote:
Left Top Shelf:

Box of Tissues
Glue Stick
Large Bone Handle Knife
Visible from the right picture, on the right most books, there is a brown circular object and a plastic (?) figurine with an orange head

Left Middle Shelf

A Lightbulb and something black? Not very clear
Small Metal Beerstein
Something gray with something on top, with a possible bone item on top of that
Something black
A plastic bag of sorts

Left Bottom Shelf

A black object in a plastic bag
A black round object, ashtray or compass perhaps?
Red figurine

On the wall:

A brown hat with a horn hanging on the wall
Picture of two people juggling bowling pins, one in white, one in black. Black-clad person had a leg in the air

Right Top Shelf

A pair of binoculars
A small wooden chest with a lock
Behind the wooden chest is something framed. An mirror/funhouse mirror/optical illusion?
Behind the frame I see a dart board and a small stuffed animal poking it's head from behind the frame.
Some yellow objects

Right Middle Shelf

A small green box
A black object, seems to be a wallet of sorts?
Leather bracers (or whatever these are called?)
A plastic bag (once again) with black things in it.
A red/orange object with a ribbon or rope attached?
A metal object with a wooden handle? I have NO idea...
A big wooden die with metal studs as eyes
A small stuffed doll

Right Bottom Shelf

A white bag with unclear content
What seems to be a red ball and some metal toys?
A small basket ball
3 juggling balls (perhaps related to the picture?)
In front of the ball, a deck of cards
Behind the balls a piece of paper or a lightswitch?

I hope I got everything. There seems to be some pieces of paper lying around as well, but sometimes it was unclear whether it was the cover of the book or something else.

Apart from that I'm not a Brit or even from an English speaking culture, so there might be a lot of cultural stuff and toys I'm missing out on.

Hope this helps!

-Pepz

 		If you look on the front-page in the rssfeed you can see that on Wed Jan 12 (which is strange cuz it's tomorrow) it says: Edward's house - Odd note found. Doesn't it seem like this is what we should be focusing on?

 		More connected to my above post on Lo Drac Lore (meaning "It Dragon Lore") & Dragon (ley) lines. Seems in Great Britian...
Quote:
Paul Devereux headed the 'Dragon Project', which tried for 10 years to record and recognize the energy that was claimed to exist at different ancient sites, specifically the Rollright stones...Source & more info
Coffee ETA: A reply about the Lo Drac Lore info was in ye ole mailbox this morning.

Wallace wrote:
Amandel,

This is very useful information about the Dragon Lore, I was beginning to
think that this case was just one big dead end. Edward's credit card
statement shows that he has been to Banbury,
once I've managed to get the car working again I will be taking a trip to the Rollright Stones.

And, of course, thank you Pepz for itemizing Edward's "stuff". That could come in quite handy for us later on.

 		That's great amandel, looks like we're on the right track. Smile

Found this while googling:
Quote:
Energy streams (Dragon Line, Song Line, etc) are natural courses of energy that weave in a serpentine manner across the planet. They are empowered and utilised by cosmic, interdimensional, universal and earthly forces. Their power is available to everyone and everything but more proficiently to those (men or women) with innate abilities or training - priests, shamans etc.


That seems to be what we are looking for right? Just so I'm confident I understand it.

 		Hi @Zhirgoyt: Looks like attemps to understand these phenomena have engaged various cultures and minds, ranging from the mystic to the scientific. In particular, I <3 your google term of "Song Lines" as a singing wifi sounds so aboriginal. Smile

Reckon we and Wallace will all be learning a lot more in the days ahead. Plus it's a super P.I. mystery.
