I too got the "I need to know more about Trilon" email from Cassandra Lost so I went back to the MERG-X website & did some poking around. On the MERG-X homepage, in the "News" section are some Press Releases. One of those press releases is labeled "Orange Book Zip File" & is in fact a downloadable zip file. After downloading & unzipping it I end up with 3 text files, labeled Patent, Products & Exclusivity.

I've been looking over the files but nothing has jumped out at me yet. In fact, I'm not sure we're even supposed to do anything with this information ourselves. I replied to Cassandra's email asking for more info, telling her about the zipped files & sending her a copy of all three.

We'll see if this advances things.

Dont forget that most of the wording on the page are just copys from the FDA, amgen and other biotechnology/pharmaceutical companys.

So that little box there that has a feed there is from FDA and other REAL companies. The Orange Book is a listing of generic drug approvals that the fda lists electronically http://www.fda.gov/drugs/informationondrugs/ucm114166.htm

In anycase cassandra should direct us, I do not have a direct contact with her as of yet Crying or Very sad but maybe advising her that you saw the Press release on Mergx and are worried about the "MAN" hunt, and what woud be the safest way for you to get info etc?

ehh.. i dunno im just crazy lab rat what do i know Laughing

Jane -
What kind of crazy lab rat are you - were you offered a volunteer position in the product trials at MERG-X?

Something I noticed at MERG-X:
The man in the picture for the press release at http://www.merg-x.com/PressRelease1.xhtml seems to be the same man in the picture on the contact page at http://www.merg-x.com/Contactus.xhtml .

The picture on the contact page is named "contactdude" and on the press release page is "mshelton." (Thought maybe we were supposed to contact this dude???) I tried emailing mshelton at merg-x.com but it failed. I searched it also but didn't find anything that seemed related. Figured it was worth looking into...

EDIT: Corrected to mshelton per Lystella's post below.

Nice & Interesting r m. The alt title in the source code for the "mshelton.jpg"is Discover so that could be quite a lead. Smile

When you call the MERG-X number you get the same recording. "Thank you for calling MERG-X. Volunteers for the Trilon project, please check you email for additional information. etc, etc"

So, I filled out the volunteer form on the Trilon website and couldn't help but notice that there was no field on that form that would enable Trilon (or MERG-X) to contact us in return to tell us how to proceed.

It seems a little shoddy to request that people fill out a form, but have no way of knowing who that person is or how to contact them to let them know how to proceed.

I sent an email to Merg-X's customer service addy telling them the name I used on the Trilon form in an attempt to tie my application to an email address so they can contact me. But considering this is the third email I've sent to MERG-X's customer service, and have yet to get any kind of a response, I'm not really holding my breath.

New Cassandra Lost email.

Thanks for heads up on FBI. I figured as much when I extracted data from their mutagen labs.
I'm concerned, though, why it took them so long to prevent it my hack on Trilontesting...I don't believe they just discovered it now. Its as if they wanted me there.
I'm searching for links, and I think Trilon may have the answer I've been looking for.

360 was the only stable way we could talk. And that hasn't changed.

Are you signed up for Trilon? Have you been selected yet?

360 refers to Xbox 360, "we could talk" I think refers to her husband...

Thanks for the heads up, but I'm more concerned why it took them so long to notice my presence on Trilontesting...it's suspicious.

This program is the only area of the company I haven't been able to discover information on myself, so see what you can find out about the program. Their phone lines have always been known to be crap, so I'm not surprised that's not helpful.

It sounds like you haven't heard from their testing? Its like they're waiting. I don't like it..

I've tried CassandraLost.tumblr.com, and genesis226.tumblr.com, job15, job1528, merg-x, trilon, and trilontesting. I also tried some different spaces, so I dunno. Any ideas?

Edit: http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/5418/mergx.png Anyone else get that error, or is it just me? Also, I don't have an Xbox 360. >.<

I am not getting that error. What browser are you using?

And no, I don't have an Xbox either.

I was doing some more looking at the MERG-X site. On the home page, I right-clicked on the page & selected "View Page Info". If you switch to the Media tab you'll see a list of what appear to be 6 images. The first one listed, "pitch", is the image in the upper right-hand part of the page, the one that looks like molecular structures. There other 5 images are named as follows:

blank
loading
close_grey
pause_grey
play_grey

The "pitch" image has a .jpg extension, the "blank" & "loading" images have a .gif extension & the final three all have .png extensions.

Looking at the images (minus the "pitch" image) shows a blank page, an animated loading graphic, a close button, a pause button & a play button.

Not sure of this is relevant or not but I thought I'd post it.

Sorry - I just typoed that all here. I actually did search and email mshelton. Hope I didn't send anyone searching aimlessly for mshenton. Gonna fix that in my original post just in case.

Thanks Lystella!
