 		Email-Omnibot
So yeah the email...

Operative ****:

Operatives:

Since our last communication, WARN operatives have uncovered a series of pages on followersoframbaldi.com which we believe could lead to the dead drops you have been tasked to intercept. To date, these encrypted pages remain a mystery. The final page, located at followersoframbaldi.com/sanctum/ultimo.php is locked behind a highly secure firewall.

We've traced the connection to a facility where the firewall physically resides in Siena, Italy. To circumvent the firewall, we intend to launch a remotely controlled mobile robot to infiltrate the facility. WARN operatives will be able to move the robot using a control panel hosted on the Omnifam website. It will be up to you and your team to direct the robot to the firewall computer and then detonate it. By destroying the firewall, we should be able to access the contents of ultimo.php.

The bot will be deployed today. This doesn't leave us much time to execute the mission and decode these messages. However, I have every confidence in your team's abilities. You'll find the control panel at omnifam.org/omnibot/. Once the bot is deployed and communications are established, the bot will begin transmitting images from its onboard camera.

The time for decisive action is upon us.

Operator

Message ID: OF-EP-301D
Classification: Confidential

 		Haven't got many thoughts on the email, however, when I open up the omnibot, all i get is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Target reached.

Opening interface...

Done.


and then a picture of the "ultimo" page. Is this correct? Or did I miss the live action?

 		The line
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Mary Baker Eddy is expecting you"
struck me as being very important, so I searched and found:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Mary Baker Eddy was the founder of the Christian Science Church.
She was born in 1821 in Bow, New Hampshire and died in 1910 aged 89.
She is buried at Mt. Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

and
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The cemetery is less than 3 miles from downtown Boston
Could this be the location?

 		Yeah when I first went to that omnibot link they had a small thing where u could see where the bot was and it's target destination on a map and u could like see through the bots eyes. It was just a little thing like a small game to get through before the page could be deplayed. You entered commands to try to get the bot to the right spot so it could then "detonate", destroy the fire wall, and u get to the page.

The sec the omnibot thing was over I refreshed the page and I got that ultimo thing and below it said testpage. Below that was a box that you could enter something in. So I just entered something random really and I got that "100 paces...ect..." thing. Did anyonelse get that box first, was it just a temporary thing? Eh, it probably doesn't really matter.

The main thing I guess right now yeah is to figure out the exact locations and times of the drops. That stuff you got StevenR sounds preety good.

 		We've been talking about this on the SD-1 boards, and think we have two locations

Boston:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Mary Baker Eddy Library for the Betterment of Humanity, 200 Massachusetts Avenue, between Huntington Avenue and Boylston Street, Boston.


Chicago:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Graceland Cemetery
Established 1860
4001 North Clark Street
Chicago, Illinois
773-525-1105

It contains this statue, which ties in with the clue http://www.graveyards.com/IL/Cook/graceland/esilence.html


We have a few ideas about the Austin location, and a possible location in Orlando, but nothing we are sure of yet. But I'll post what we have under another spoiler tag:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
For Austin "A pioneer, a lawyer, a soldier, a preacher" refers to John Bunyon Denton and we think that "The morning shadow of the tallest monument conceals your goal" could be the SunTrust Center - (200 South Orange Avenue, Florida (FL), USA) which appears to be the tallest building/monument in Orlando
