I've received Theresa's email as well, and am having a conversation with her. She's saying pretty much the same stuff that's already been posted here, but I'll update this post if that changes.

Isn't it odd that Theresa would email everybody on the Project Mnemosyne applicant list from an alternate email address like this? I'm very skeptical of the motives behind this mass email.

Her response to Illuminati seems pretty telling.

Granted, it could be the PM just trying to get people involved. That's somewhat meta but it would make sense.But if Theresa is a spy then bringing someone else into our loop wouldn't be in hsr best interests...

Granted, I am hardly guarenteed to be right, but still...

I got something:
Quote:
I'm sorry for keeping this short. I'm on my phone and have typed this quite a few times now.

Everything changed eleven years ago. Alec's family is from Philadelphia, I believe. From what i know, he was apparently going on a short vacation with his wife and his daughter. They flew into Atlantic City. And that's where things get strange.

One, why not just fly to Philadelphia? Then, there was the accident, which was 40 or 50 miles north of Atlantic City, not west. The rumors I heard, all second-hand, five years after all of this happened, was that he was on his way to CBALtech. Why? I have no idea. No one does.

But the accident...His wife was killed instantly. his daughter suffered some sort of massive heard trauma and ended up in a rehabilitaton hospital.

That's everything I know about it. I've known it since I started working here.

There's one more thing though, that I told one of the other applicants. Veil was gone from the company for a few years. I was hired about a week prior to him coming back from that time away. Everything I had heard, even the company mission statement at the time involved Alec, Hope, and Donald. but when Alec came back, things were different between them. I had never seen them together, but based on everything I had heard, everyting I had THOUGHT it would be, it was nothing like that.

Re: trying a different approach

i recieved theresa's email like everyone else but decided to take a different approach from most after receiving her standard reply about cory being her fault.

theresa, i don't understand what you are talking about. your email worries me a great deal. i signed up for your tests because i believe veil is progressing humanity. but now you email about a cory guy as if he is dead? i don't feel i should be expected to go through with the testing scenarios if people are dying from them. please help me understand what you are talking about before i commit my life into veil's hands.


her reply wasn't really what i expected (not sure what i did expect, though):

Haven't you been receiving the emails? Something or someone inside Veil is trying to tell us something. I don't think any of us are safe.

findeverandall.blogspot.com

Go to this blog. It should tell you everything you need to know to get caught up.

-T


i want to still play it off like i'm in the dark a bit but i am looking for some advice as i'm new to this type of game.

i'm thinking about approaching it as if i am aware of the emails, blog, packet, etc. but that i assumed it was a disgruntled employee trying to smear the company's good name and see what she says about it. i figure it is worth a shot since it is a different approach from others. i'll let you know how she responds but if anybody would like to help me with this approach i am open to suggestions.


I think a different approach is a great idea. I think being clueless and concerned is a good tactic. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

EDIT: to avoid double posting. I just sent dataserver3 an email about Theresa. I figure whoever is behind the emails should know that there is another at Veil on our side, or maybe if Theresa is on the up and up.

I sent her a copy of one of the Access code papers that I got in my packet from IRIS. Asked her what they could mean. Here is her response:


Theresa:
Wow. Where the hell did you get this?

Okay...I've seen this before, but not THIS. Not the whole thing. We get a piece of that. Let's me get to my floor, to my section of the office. My office door doesn't lock, but the section of my floor does. Even the elevator has a code. Only to go up, though. Going down doesn't require a code, unless you're going into the basement. And...three basement levels. Wow. I've worked here by six years, and I've been told that there's only two levels. There's only two basement buttons on the elevator.

You're the third person to mention another basement level.

Anyway, yes, these codes are security access codes. They change every day. I've never seen all of codes together like this. Only the security office would have this.

More from T:

Quote:
The last I heard about Jane was that she was somewhere called the Bay Area Recovery Center. That was years ago, and I heard that when I started here. So, honestly, I have no idea.

Hope and Donald run this place. No one ever sees Alec. Is he pulling all the strings? Probably. But it's definitely strange.


Out of ideas of what to ask.

Link to the site she mentioned:
http://www.bayarearecovery.com/

It seems to be a Drug/Alcohol addiction center. Legitimate business by the looks of it.

Anyone check out the phone # from the accident report?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Morbid thought... what if the accident was a setup....?


Wonder if Alice could shed light on why/if Alec was heading to CBALtech?

The plot thickens yet again. The Bay area recovery center does look legit and OOG. I tried Veil's number from the accident report a few days ago, but freaked out and hung up when a woman answered. (I'm kind of terrified of talking to strangers on the phone, and was expecting a voicemail or something.) Haven't tried again.

I got the email from Theresa as well. I've been mostly not interacting with IG characters, but I might reply sometime today or tomorrow. I was thinking of asking if there were any mysterious hires or funds being shifted around during 2007-8, when the Ward Five stuff was happening. (Without mentioning it directly, although if she's seen Bill's blog, then she's seen the DS3 emails.) Maybe she can shed some light on who Fill could be.

Think we could get her to sneak to subbasement 3? It might be worthwhile, but we might end up with another missing Veil employee. But some pictures/info about what's down there now would be interesting at the very least.

different approach may have been wrong approach

just to update you on my tactic of taking a different approach introduced in my earlier post, it seems to have been the wrong one to take and not what she was looking for. instead of playing completely clueless i did tweak it a little and sent her this:

Quote:
hi theresa,

yes i am familiar with the blog link you sent me and i have been receiving the emails from an email address on "data server 3", whatever that is. but i was thinking the information being dispersed could only be one of two things 1) veil is sending out materials to test incoming subjects for the chip-77 experiments, or 2) a disgruntled employee is trying to disrupt veil's amazing progression in humanity's advancement. i have been following the "trail of debris" very closely since it started coming out just in case scenario 1 is being played out.

but your email tells me cory is a real person and you feel as if his demise is your fault. my worries are increasing substantially and now i feel as if this knowledge i have received is putting me in danger. i, of course, signed up for veil's experiments to help my fellow man. i did not sign up to become just another cory tossed aside and forgotten.

please, theresa, help me understand if my worries are based in reality. is this information real? what is it you are seeing at veil that has gotten you spooked enough to risk becoming another cory or eve?


but her responses have ceased for the moment (probably shouldn't have used the word "real" even though i didn't mean it as it sounds). if i do get a response using this tactic i'll definitely post it.

Yeah, I have yet to receive anything further from her either. Oh well. Maybe it will be the usual "wait until I am away" game and get something.

Pssh... I've just been emailing questions and getting answers back in return. Now it feels like I'm taking wild shots in the dark. Trying not to ask about anything we already know....

Oh, such bad timing for me... got a hurt dog and the usual OMG mountain of studying/homework to do.

From an earlier email that's already posted:
Quote:
Miller and Bradenburg went to visit Dr. Veil. They were "best friends" from everything I had heard. The company really put all three of them in the spotlight. They were a triumvirate of success, they had us believing.

So, when Dr. Veil came back, I knew he would be shaken. I can't imagine losing someone you loved. But he wasn't sad, he wasn'y upset. Miller, Bradenburg...they weren't comforting. They were dead. Just blank stares the entire meeting. Something happened to them after that accident, after they went to visit him.


Hmmm..... and all the higher-ups are acting nervous. Perhaps a shared secret?

Did anyone get mail?

Sorry I've had a lot going on at home and not been on for a long time!! but I got a large envelope today from IRIS with 4 pieces of a "basement sublevel 3 floor plan" blue print. I also got 4 pages of "security access codes". Has anyone else received this?
