 		[UPDATE] Ivan's Miranda Virus Team
Ivan the Terrible posted to the Science Sucks boards that he wanted to meet us.

Quote:
It is time for something more than just talk. If you are interested, meet me on flight I-16 Coco Air. It may be a long-distance trip for some of you, but it cannot be helped.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
jamesi noted in chat that "coco air" mapped to 262-6247 on a phone pad. I tried calling (416) 262-6247 (416 coming from I-16), and got a recorded message, a lady reciting the following numbers (note the first number is cut off a bit at the start, but the sequence repeats): 77 73 82 65 78 68 65 86 73 82 85 83 46 67 65.

This is ASCII code for MIRANDAVIRUS.CA

Heading there, we see references to a horrible plague as well as Science Sucks. There's also a quiz you can take (turn off your popup-blockers) linked in the second paragraph from the bottom, if you have an account at Science Sucks already. When you've completed the test, it'll open up a new "Miranda Investigation" forum over at the Science Sucks site.



Edit: Fixed missing end quote. </pedant> -SpaceBass

 		The first reply to Ivan in the newly accesible Miranda Investigation section of the ScienceSucks is by a member called labmole. Clicking on the link in his/her signature gets you to http://www.labmole.ca

 		Ivan also sent out an email to prompt people to look at his post about wanting to talk.

I am writing you because I need your help.
You must be in shock just like I am but please - turn off the news AND VISIT THIS PAGE TO HELP ME SOLVE THE MIRANDA EPIDEMIC
http://www.sciencesucks.com/talk/viewforum.php?f=5

If you and I don't start acting now, we could all be over in Hazmat City before long. I need to talk to you about it.

The Ministry of Health is controlling the flow of information now - it's all about containment and calming the public.
Let's show them we can do a lot more than just wash our hands.

Ivan.

The questions and answers are stored in XML format on the website, that is then grabbed and parsed by the flash. I just formated the XML doc for easy reading.
