Chat with Dale 6/22

The chat was original scheduled for 7 to 7:30 is, but it was about 8 when Dale showed up, and Sam attempted to get on a couple of times today but wasn't on more than a few seconds each time.
Following is the transcript:
Quote:
(8:19:31 PM) You have just entered room "ChatWithDale."
BarbarellaNY (8:19:40 PM): how about repetition of the letter?
synthasiadale (8:19:58 PM): a lot of people emailed me about the site they found that described the faery star on the disc
synthasiadale (8:20:09 PM): http://www.faerytrail.com
synthasiadale (8:20:52 PM): thats site has a list of words or ideas or concepts commonly associated with faery stars
synthasiadale (8:21:16 PM): ive been using that to try and make sense of this disc; has anyone else?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:21:34 PM): yeah, many of us have been using that site dale
synthasiadale (8:21:45 PM): but one problem is that each symbol or point of the star seems to have many possible menaings
Magesteff (8:21:47 PM): several of us have looked at that, but had trouble figuring in the pips/gems under each symbol
synthasiadale (8:21:49 PM): meanings*
LittleShortGuy99 (8:21:56 PM): unfortunately, we havent had any more luck than you have
LittleShortGuy99 (8:21:58 PM): yeah
weirdwesk (8:22:10 PM): write it out
synthasiadale (8:22:14 PM): what?
weirdwesk (8:22:25 PM): write it out, on a piece of paper
synthasiadale (8:22:37 PM): what do you mean?
weirdwesk (8:22:39 PM): the words
weirdwesk (8:22:43 PM): at first
weirdwesk (8:22:48 PM): write down the words
synthasiadale (8:23:00 PM): does anyone have a list in front of them of these words?
(8:23:02 PM) Wabaloo has entered the room.
synthasiadale (8:23:06 PM): let me check my notes
LittleShortGuy99 (8:23:44 PM): http://www.faerytrail.com/faerytrail3/index2. html
LittleShortGuy99 (8:23:51 PM): and click on faery stars
LittleShortGuy99 (8:23:55 PM): thats the list of meanings
synthasiadale (8:24:01 PM): Sun
synthasiadale (8:24:11 PM): Earth: (also shown as a tree or a stone)
Magesteff (8:24:20 PM): Water
synthasiadale (8:24:20 PM): Water: (sometimes may be a wave-like sgn or a teardrop)
synthasiadale (8:24:31 PM): Harmony: (common symbols are hands clasped or people embracing)
synthasiadale (8:24:42 PM): Hand: Magic, Powers of Mind
synthasiadale (8:24:54 PM): Wind: (sometimes symbolized by a cloud or flying bird)
Magesteff (8:24:59 PM): Portal, Magic, Gateway
synthasiadale (8:25:02 PM): Path: (sometimes shown as a doorway or portal)
synthasiadale (8:25:12 PM): ok sorry for the cut and paste routine
synthasiadale (8:25:22 PM): just wanted to get the info in front of us
synthasiadale (8:25:36 PM): "writing it down" so to speak
weirdwesk (8:25:39 PM): i said use paper
synthasiadale (8:25:48 PM): ok
Magesteff (8:25:52 PM): who uses paper anymore these days?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:25:57 PM): wes, youre being mighty cryptic
weirdwesk (8:26:00 PM): good writers
synthasiadale (8:26:09 PM): enough can we move on wes?
synthasiadale (8:26:19 PM): you'll get your chance
Prettycolors62 (8:26:30 PM): lelellele
(8:26:51 PM) MyssFitz has entered the room.
synthasiadale (8:27:14 PM): hold on i have to get back to the picture of the disc now
Enaxor (8:27:17 PM): Dale the symbols on the disc aren
synthasiadale (8:27:21 PM): ok there it is
Enaxor (8:27:22 PM): sorry
synthasiadale (8:27:33 PM): what enaxor?
Enaxor (8:27:33 PM): aren't in that order
synthasiadale (8:27:49 PM): ok i wasnt implying an order yet, just taking off the other site
Enaxor (8:28:01 PM): k
synthasiadale (8:28:12 PM): ok it looks like the sun symbol
Magesteff (8:28:13 PM): And there is the symbol in the center of the disc
synthasiadale (8:28:16 PM): yes
synthasiadale (8:28:23 PM): thats right magesteff
synthasiadale (8:28:30 PM): i forgot to list that
synthasiadale (8:28:47 PM): but there wasnt a point of the star associated with it
synthasiadale (8:29:10 PM): im starting with the sun symbol for two reasons
Magesteff (8:29:10 PM): no. It just looks like a stick person jumping over something
synthasiadale (8:29:14 PM): yes
synthasiadale (8:29:17 PM): mage
synthasiadale (8:29:49 PM): that symbol looks a lot like one of the letters from that last weird alphabet we received too
synthasiadale (8:29:56 PM): from greywethers
LittleShortGuy99 (8:29:58 PM): yes, it looks like the W
synthasiadale (8:30:32 PM): anyway the sun might be best to start with because it only has one interpretation - sun - and one jewel or dot to it.
synthasiadale (8:30:50 PM): so the possible meanings i come up with are
synthasiadale (8:31:00 PM): its the first word of whatever message is there
synthasiadale (8:31:21 PM): or we take one letter from the word (one from the one dot)
synthasiadale (8:31:32 PM): for the hidden message
synthasiadale (8:31:44 PM): possibly the "s" if the one signifies position
Magesteff (8:32:12 PM): I think the second theory might be the better one... two of the symbols have 3 dots and 6 dots
weirdwesk (8:32:14 PM): oir maybe it means the "sun" is first in whatever order you need to solve things
synthasiadale (8:32:30 PM): any other ideas?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:32:32 PM): unfortunately, Dale, the tree signifies EARTH, which has 5 letters, but there are 6 dots
synthasiadale (8:32:45 PM): ok hold on, one at a time
synthasiadale (8:33:08 PM): if we assume my first suggestion is correct
synthasiadale (8:33:22 PM): that the "one" dot means its the first word of a phrase
synthasiadale (8:33:35 PM): then symbols with more than one set or line of dots
Enaxor (8:33:38 PM): but earth has 6 description
synthasiadale (8:33:43 PM): would have to be used more than once
MyssFitz (8:33:45 PM): Earth: (also shown as a tree or a stone) Unconditional Love, Wisdom, Growth, Friendship, Healing.
synthasiadale (8:34:00 PM): do you follow me?
synthasiadale (8:34:06 PM): that doesnt seem to feasible
LittleShortGuy99 (8:34:19 PM): not quite dale
Magesteff (8:34:33 PM): II think I see what you are getting at
synthasiadale (8:34:42 PM): if one dot means use the word "sun" as the first word
BarbarellaNY (8:34:59 PM): Unless it's 6th word 6th letter?
Magesteff (8:34:59 PM): The tree has 6 ... one row of 2 and a second row of 4
BarbarellaNY (8:35:20 PM): or second word 4th letter
synthasiadale (8:35:25 PM): but there are more than one symbol with six total dots
LittleShortGuy99 (8:35:34 PM): yes
synthasiadale (8:35:41 PM): so it cant be the total number if that method is correct
Magesteff (8:35:42 PM): and more than one with 3 dots
synthasiadale (8:35:48 PM): it would have to be separate numbers
LittleShortGuy99 (8:35:49 PM): right
synthasiadale (8:35:57 PM): so lets stay with the easiest method for now
synthasiadale (8:36:16 PM): one dot with sun means one letter, possibly "s"
synthasiadale (8:36:26 PM): thats where we will start
LittleShortGuy99 (8:36:26 PM): right
synthasiadale (8:36:39 PM): ok the next symbol going clock wise is the tree
Sandra ctw (8:36:53 PM): second and fourth letter?
synthasiadale (8:36:54 PM): which the faerytrail site tells us could mean earth
synthasiadale (8:36:59 PM): or tree
synthasiadale (8:37:13 PM): or maybe even stone
synthasiadale (8:37:20 PM): lets keep it simple again
LittleShortGuy99 (8:37:20 PM): there are 6 dots though, and earth and stone have 5
Magesteff (8:37:30 PM): do 2 and 4
synthasiadale (8:37:32 PM): and stay with earth
synthasiadale (8:37:38 PM): yes mage i agree
BarbarellaNY (8:37:40 PM): unless it's all 4 of tree
synthasiadale (8:38:07 PM): lets stay with 2 dots and 4 dots as separate lines
weirdwesk (8:38:13 PM): a and t
synthasiadale (8:38:24 PM): if its earth yes
synthasiadale (8:38:34 PM): anyone actually writing these down?
weirdwesk (8:38:38 PM): ha
pjhensley2 (8:38:39 PM): yes
BarbarellaNY (8:38:39 PM): yes
Magesteff (8:38:43 PM): yes
Sandra ctw (8:38:45 PM): yep
synthasiadale (8:38:48 PM): ok next
synthasiadale (8:38:56 PM): the tear drop or drop of water
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:00 PM): whoa
KyraSplash (8:39:04 PM): and i'm not liking what i see either
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:07 PM): me neither
synthasiadale (8:39:08 PM): what was the official "word" for this one?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:10 PM): satan
synthasiadale (8:39:15 PM): what?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:15 PM): i have satan so far
synthasiadale (8:39:18 PM): oh
Prettycolors62 (8:39:21 PM): oh dear
KyraSplash (8:39:23 PM): satanpaidam
weirdwesk (8:39:23 PM): hehehe
synthasiadale (8:39:34 PM): satan paid am?
synthasiadale (8:39:42 PM): is that all the letters with this method?
KyraSplash (8:39:47 PM): that's what i'm seeing
synthasiadale (8:39:50 PM): hmm
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:52 PM): SATANTIDAM
LittleShortGuy99 (8:39:55 PM): is what i got
synthasiadale (8:40:00 PM): anyone else work through it yet
KyraSplash (8:40:08 PM): not if you keep the one line two lines LSG
synthasiadale (8:40:10 PM): to save me doing this completely and slowly
weirdwesk (8:40:13 PM): lol
KyraSplash (8:40:34 PM): Path = 1 and 2
LittleShortGuy99 (8:40:35 PM): hang on, lemme recheck
LittleShortGuy99 (8:40:51 PM): ah, your right
synthasiadale (8:40:55 PM): ok from the drop (water) we get "a" right?
KyraSplash (8:41:06 PM): right
LittleShortGuy99 (8:41:16 PM): yeah
weirdwesk (8:41:21 PM): hand would be n
LittleShortGuy99 (8:41:22 PM): i got satanpaidam
Sandra ctw (8:41:31 PM): Could we define the exact words we are using for each symbol?
synthasiadale (8:41:36 PM): is that right?
LittleShortGuy99 (8:41:43 PM): yeah
LittleShortGuy99 (8:41:47 PM): anagram, maybe?

weirdwesk (9:04:30 PM): penrose may be somewhat obsessed and single minded
weirdwesk (9:04:45 PM): but hes done a lot of reserach into Trithemius
weirdwesk (9:05:11 PM): the man he believes made the pages that have been found
weirdwesk (9:05:57 PM): Penrose's research into Trithemius lead him to believe that Trithemius belonged to one
weirdwesk (9:06:13 PM): if not many "secret" organizations or sects of knowledge
weirdwesk (9:06:40 PM): and that many of his writings contain clues to this secret and/or scared knowledge
weirdwesk (9:06:52 PM): none of that is really new or startling
weirdwesk (9:07:05 PM): many scholARS HAVE TURNED UP THE SAME THINGS
weirdwesk (9:07:12 PM): oops sorry
weirdwesk (9:07:24 PM): but
weirdwesk (9:07:35 PM): Penrose has found indications
weirdwesk (9:08:03 PM): hand written notes, letters, even partial passages in other Trithemius manuscripts
weirdwesk (9:08:38 PM): leading him to believe Trithemius was one of something called "the Nine"
weirdwesk (9:09:22 PM): he has found several references that say Trithemius was "one of nine"
weirdwesk (9:09:35 PM): furthermore
weirdwesk (9:10:17 PM): penrose believes that these "nine" are beings or people
weirdwesk (9:10:42 PM): who have learned things or made discoveries
weirdwesk (9:11:20 PM): and have somehow become something more than or different than human
weirdwesk (9:11:42 PM): he specifically showed me writings from Trithemius
weirdwesk (9:12:16 PM): in which he talks about travelling between worlds or realms or dimensions, or whatever you want to call them
BarbarellaNY (9:12:39 PM): they transmuted?
weirdwesk (9:12:50 PM): its these worlds he credits for inspiring the unusual drawings, scripts and knowledge found in his other manuscripts
LittleShortGuy99 (9:13:21 PM): "When you meet anything that's going to be Human and isn't yet, or used to be Human and isn't now, or ought to be Human but isn't, you keep your eyes on it and feel for your hatchet"
synthasiadale (9:13:23 PM): yes ive looked through other Trithemius material and its all very strange
Magesteff (9:13:25 PM): Sounds like the ppl at the moorish Ashram...
weirdwesk (9:13:33 PM): anyway
weirdwesk (9:13:50 PM): the famous Trithemius set called the Steganographia
(9:14:49 PM) hcarroll103 has entered the room.
weirdwesk (9:14:52 PM): contains refernces throughout
weirdwesk (9:15:11 PM): about containing the knowledge and means to do this same thing
weirdwesk (9:15:28 PM): "journey between worlds" so to speak
weirdwesk (9:15:44 PM): and the third volume of the Steganographia when translated
weirdwesk (9:15:52 PM): contains nothing but nonsense
Magesteff (9:16:10 PM): What about the possible fourth book....
weirdwesk (9:16:16 PM): thats why Penrose is convinced that this lost "fourth book"
weirdwesk (9:16:31 PM): actually contains the secret or hidden knowledge
weirdwesk (9:17:07 PM): actually the first two Steganographia books mention a fourth book
weirdwesk (9:17:17 PM): in their introductionary sections
weirdwesk (9:17:29 PM): but because it had never been published or found
weirdwesk (9:17:42 PM): it has gone largely ignored throughout history
(9:17:46 PM) Prettycolors62 has left the room.
(9:17:46 PM) Prettycolors62 has entered the room.
synthasiadale (9:17:59 PM): tell them how "the wish" ties in wes
weirdwesk (9:18:06 PM): im getting to that dale
(9:18:24 PM) hcarroll103 has left the room.
weirdwesk (9:18:37 PM): penrose has actaully had many authorities looking at the images of the pages he has
weirdwesk (9:18:59 PM): and has translated the first two of them pretty thoroughly
weirdwesk (9:19:26 PM): both of them contain a reference to something called "the wish"
weirdwesk (9:19:51 PM): in fact depending on the interpretation
weirdwesk (9:20:24 PM): it can be read as if that is the title or intent of the work - finding or catching the wish
LittleShortGuy99 (9:20:33 PM): yes, we translated that as well, wes
LittleShortGuy99 (9:20:39 PM): "Chasing the Wish"
KyraSplash (9:20:56 PM): well that is just what we need - a way to catch the wish
weirdwesk (9:21:02 PM): yes but there are a couple of important points to consider here
weirdwesk (9:21:10 PM): first
weirdwesk (9:21:25 PM): penrose thinks that is too literal a translation
BarbarellaNY (9:21:30 PM): or do we, is that the choice we will have to make?
synthasiadale (9:21:34 PM): yes but he doesnt know what we know wes
weirdwesk (9:21:40 PM): i realize that
weirdwesk (9:22:17 PM): but he says it may just mean or symbolize man's desire to move beyond the mundane mortal world
weirdwesk (9:22:26 PM): into the realm of the spiritual or sacred
ValasAzuviir (9:22:38 PM): Or what the Don and certain members of his family know.
weirdwesk (9:22:55 PM): one other important thing though
weirdwesk (9:23:25 PM): Penrose confirms that the rest of the Latin text on the page is significant in two ways
weirdwesk (9:23:44 PM): first it is written in a style similar to that with Trithemius employed
weirdwesk (9:23:55 PM): im no Latin expert
weirdwesk (9:24:15 PM): but i understand there are many different ways to write and say the same sentence or phrase
Magesteff (9:24:33 PM): So someone else finished the page...
weirdwesk (9:25:10 PM): and that Trithemius, actually used a strange almost personalized version of it in ceratin documents
weirdwesk (9:25:27 PM): but thats not conclusive obviously just interesting
weirdwesk (9:25:39 PM): more importantly is the meaning of the text
(9:26:23 PM) Fortune032 has entered the room.
weirdwesk (9:26:51 PM): Penrose claims the text on the second page talks about different worlds and moving between them
weirdwesk (9:27:16 PM): and almsot promises that the following pages would explain how to do this
weirdwesk (9:27:56 PM): so far he has only seen pictures of what he thinks is the third page
weirdwesk (9:28:05 PM): but
(9:28:20 PM) Fortune032 has left the room.
weirdwesk (9:28:29 PM): i believe i have located the actual page or am on the verge of finding it
LittleShortGuy99 (9:29:01 PM): excellent
synthasiadale (9:29:05 PM): please its important that noone tell Penrose this
weirdwesk (9:29:18 PM): at least for now, that's right
Magesteff (9:29:46 PM): ok
weirdwesk (9:29:49 PM): we have another use for him and need leverage as insurance
weirdwesk (9:29:55 PM): believe me though
weirdwesk (9:30:12 PM): this need for secrecy wont last long we're hoping
MyssFitz (9:30:24 PM): another use for him?
weirdwesk (9:30:33 PM): yes
MyssFitz (9:30:45 PM): any hints?
weirdwesk (9:31:03 PM): remember what i said about not breaking any laws and not entering the Willingham home?
MyssFitz (9:31:10 PM): yes
ValasAzuviir (9:31:34 PM): yes.. uhm.. you overlooked something btw regarding that situation..
ValasAzuviir (9:32:06 PM): Chapter 113, section 2314 and section 2315 of the US Code.
Dashcat7 (9:32:18 PM): lol
weirdwesk (9:32:25 PM): well i didnt say laws werent broken, i said i didnt break them - Penrose knows and can prove what actually happened
KyraSplash (9:32:52 PM): *sorry to interrupt* but any luck finding Sam, Dale?
Magesteff (9:32:52 PM): So he was an eye witness?
MyssFitz (9:32:57 PM): who did break them?
ValasAzuviir (9:33:08 PM): they deal with the transportation of stolen property and the sale of said items
weirdwesk (9:33:19 PM): valas
weirdwesk (9:33:37 PM): if the items were not "stolen" at the time i transported them
weirdwesk (9:33:45 PM): that wouldnt apply would it?
Magesteff (9:33:55 PM): Wes have you been talking to Phylis?
synthasiadale (9:34:02 PM): awes be careful we need to
weirdwesk (9:34:11 PM): i know dale
MyssFitz (9:34:11 PM): you naughty boy;-)
ValasAzuviir (9:34:21 PM): that would entail that JD willingham gave you the items..
weirdwesk (9:34:21 PM): anyway
weirdwesk (9:34:29 PM): i never said that
weirdwesk (9:34:32 PM): valas
Magesteff (9:34:45 PM): Not directly anyway...
synthasiadale (9:34:54 PM): you've said too much wes
weirdwesk (9:35:05 PM): we're among friends
MyssFitz (9:35:10 PM): So JD was talking to you on the phone?
weirdwesk (9:35:26 PM): listen be patient about that subject
LittleShortGuy99 (9:35:31 PM): whoa, guys, slow down on the allegations
weirdwesk (9:35:34 PM): there is a lot at stake yet
(9:35:37 PM) Prettycolors62 has left the room.
(9:35:37 PM) Prettycolors62 has entered the room.
MyssFitz (9:35:44 PM): no allegations, just a question.
weirdwesk (9:36:10 PM): one last thing about the manuscript pages
weirdwesk (9:36:21 PM): im emailing penrose tonight
weirdwesk (9:36:31 PM): to tell him im on the trail of the third page
weirdwesk (9:36:45 PM): and asking him to send me pics so i can identify it for sure
weirdwesk (9:37:08 PM): if i receive them, we'll get them posted somewhere discretely
weirdwesk (9:37:16 PM): any word from sam yet dale?
ValasAzuviir (9:37:20 PM): I know, and I don't mind.. In my line of work.. acquiring items is sometimes a given.. my concern is dale here. he's in enough trouble as is, having law enforcement after him at this stage would be.. problematic..
synthasiadale (9:37:33 PM): no
synthasiadale (9:37:41 PM): im think im going to go over there
Magesteff (9:37:53 PM): Be careful
weirdwesk (9:37:55 PM): i tell you what, ill meet you there
Magesteff (9:38:15 PM): Both of you be careful... Carol said they have returned...
Sandra ctw (9:38:23 PM): And check in with us when you know he's ok.
synthasiadale (9:38:29 PM): someone just im'd me that sam said something about going out to Ash Grove Park
KyraSplash (9:38:36 PM): who?
synthasiadale (9:38:37 PM): did he tell anyone else that?
MyssFitz (9:38:42 PM): Uh oh
Magesteff (9:38:43 PM): No.
LittleShortGuy99 (9:38:46 PM): Surprised
Dashcat7 (9:38:51 PM): Oh, not alone
weirdwesk (9:38:52 PM): he wouldnt do that dale
LittleShortGuy99 (9:38:54 PM): dale - did you see this?
weirdwesk (9:38:55 PM): sams a wuss
synthasiadale (9:38:59 PM): lol
LittleShortGuy99 (9:38:59 PM): www.ashgrovepark.com
ValasAzuviir (9:39:18 PM): lets hope that Sal and Marco are not up to their old tricks again..
Magesteff (9:39:20 PM): Maybe he saw the page chaged back like the rest of us noticed?
synthasiadale (9:39:21 PM): yeah you're probably right
synthasiadale (9:39:46 PM): i think sal my actually be some use to us valas
MyssFitz (9:39:48 PM): Anyone talk to Desire Hunter?
synthasiadale (9:39:54 PM): but lets keep that quite for now too, ok?

Magesteff (9:41:04 PM): But we worry about him just the same...

KyraSplash (9:47:20 PM): Dale? Are you waiting on something? Just curious....
Sandra ctw (9:47:48 PM): I just copied it, so if there's anything missing I've got it. I was here well before it started.
