[OT] HAHA...
New Letters....

GOOD JOB!
Just wanted to write a general thank you for your great reporting lately. Thanks!
lain, Earth
WOOT! I made the letters! The funny thing is that I just sent that to see what kind of auto reply I would receive. =) It's almost enough to forget that I don't have my package yet.

Anyways... something I noticed immediately... Holyoke is a college. Probably nothing important, but caught my eye.
Interesting also to note (however probably not important) is that Holyoke is a city, as is Bonham , the last name of "Neighboring business owner Linda Bonham" from the article.
ok - back to whatever it is I do...

And John Bonham was a drummer for Led Zepplin (who perished rather less-than-gloriously by asphixiating on vomit ).

Yeah it does seem that they mention sushi alot. I was going to ask - how many Japanese players are there? I have seen a few articles (real world) en Francais - but most of the people playing seem to be of European descent.
I wrote Scarlett once about the name "Caldera Drive." I asked her if this name, and the fact that PC buildings are so tall - was because they lived on an island, perhaps a volcanic one. No reply.
I hope I have a parcel tomorrow. With "ea" . . . Sente = Santa

Long live Rock & Roll...
I like the idea that the Five of Cups is a sushi bar... Or the idea of a tarot referance... could be a puzzle bar too... but the idea I like the most, especially if we're going to be returning some wonderous cube to these people, is that they actually get drunk like us Earthians. Maybe it's just me, but Perplexians seem so dour.

Yeah, and Hollyoaks is a soap in the UK, which is normally quite amusing for a soap (almost, but not really anywhere near, as good as Neighbours).
Yay for Led Zeppelin - Robert Plant played our union over easter, but I was away

my fFavorite clever bar name is The Twenty fFirst Amendment. link fFor non-americans , with cross reference .
I fFeel like most of this time has been, like, introducing us to the world by way of the newspaper. which is fFine. But now we are all, you know, introduced, and now we get to read whatever goes on while waiting fFor packages to arrive. which is to say, this article fFeels like fFiller, and i somehow imagine more fFiller to come until packages are recieved. I mean i dont mind, i'm getting kind of attached to this city, and want to know more about it, so whatever gets me there is fFine. I just wish it were a little more, like, encyclopedic, and not so much of the biased-second-hand-newspaper-clipping stuff.

I was thinking the same thing until the first mention of puzzle bars - the only mention of getting pissed was in the Olde man of Malme text - y'know with the snooty lady and drunk viticulturist...
BTW you poms - you do realize neighbours is shit, don't you? please tell me you know it's shit?

Some people know it's crap...*MikeyJ looks accusingly at Salkunh with his red laser oblong eyes*
On the Tarot front, the most common deck is the Rider-Waite deck, conceived and designed by two members of the Order of the Golden Dawn (I'm reading this from the back of the packet). Attempting to match cards with the PPC zodiac doesn't work well (Spider doesn't really fit, unless it's the 8 of something and who's the baby?). It doesn't actually work well with the Earth zodiac, three signs each being assigned a suit...not an individual card, so IMO would say that this ain't going anywhere useful.
The link between the articles and the horoscopes sounds promising, but we're going to need a hell of a lot more examples, otherwise we're just reading too much in to them again. Also what would be the point of linking the horoscopes and articles together? How would it tell us something (which is what we're after isn't it)?

Way before the cube was discovered, but after the founding of the Academy.

Ok, this has been puzzling me since day 1.
Why does a lower-case "f" always seem to appear before an upper-case "F"? in Scott's posts? ( fF) ???
This would free up resources in my subconscious if I knew why.

I sent him a PM asking for the reason and got no reply. Notice also that the same happens on his webpage. Its probably some kind of signaure so that he looks original (no offense intended)
BTW, I'm on Firefox and Linux and I've never seen this before..
Ok... nuff said today... back to work. This waiting is killing me slowly.
Edit: I think it's probably a problem with his keyboard
