Eva mail
not much here

I'm not sure I'd be too keen on drinking this youshi stuff. Anything that list any kind of sulfer in it would give me pause. I was wondering what you're studying at college and what professor Wilson teaches. It just seems an odd sort of research project. You said Dr. Wilson was a friend of your mum? What did she teach? I've actually considered being a professor myself. I'm going for my master's now, so we'll see.



Hey was there any Youkin products in the food parcels Dr. Wilson sent? Not sure I would drink or eat them, but maybe you could get company contact info as the website didn't seem to have any just that weird little chatterbot. Amusing but not horribly helpful.



Good luck and let me know if there's anything else I can do from over here in the states

Eva's Response
Yes it does sound a bit dodgy! Isn't sulphur kind of stinky like bad eggs? I wonder what it tastes like?! I had some Japanese seaweed ice cream once and that was, well, quite unusual!
Professor Wilson always has his reasons for doing things but he doesn't always tell me what they are. It's odd that I haven't seen him since before my accident, he's not always in the mood to talk though.
Yes my mum was a lecturer at SRI and a writer too. I wish she was here.
Anyway! Thanks again for your message.

Be seeing you

Eva.

the only info i'd consider of any relevance is that she hasn't seen wilson since her accident and finds it odd.

Also that her mum was a writer. We should probably watch out for her books

She is still dodging the question about what the Professor actually teaches, which is suspicious.

Yeah I noticed that. Which probably means it's quite significant to the story if they don't want to reveal it yet. I reckon he's a baddie.

Maybe this is more likely to be the SRI referred to

Didn't she say she had lived in America when she was much younger? My guess is that this would put Springs somewhere in the vicinity of Stanford (in California). It seems to fit, given what we know about Eva. And there aren't many other SRIs, it seems.

Granted I only did cursory reseach of the wiki and stanford Research institute website but I find no mention of any research or facilities in Britain

But that would mean that both Eva and Mr. Wilson are overseas students/teachers. Seems a bit awkward

I've always suspected that Eva lived in California when she was in the States. (Unfortunately, she hasn't answered that particular email of mine.) My reasoning? Melvin Geist lives there. Smile

I'm pretty sure Eva lives in England now so I don't think the Stanford Research Institute is right, nor the Silsoe one as it closed in 2004. Can't find any others though!

If i'm not mistaken, as I understand it Eva hasn't at one point indicated that Professor Wilson is still at SRI, just that both him and her mother were there at some point...

Sorry I should have noted this is in response to an email!

Hi,

Thanks for your comments on Youshi but it doesn't really give me anything new. I've seen

everything on the web site and I know the kind of things Yuki has said. Lots of people are

looking into 'Marsh Extract' but I don't know how important that is. Maybe it's not the individual ingredients that matter but what they make when they get together?

It's a pretty big claim to say something boosts your brain power or whatever. I can't find out any more about YouKin. They do seem really mysterious and I can't get hold of Prof. Wilson to ask him anything about it.

You ask about my mum and dad. My mum Elaine published a few articles and she was working on a book.She'd been quite ill since I was born. My dad John was a painter but he died quite suddenly in 1993 in Springs. Some of their stuff is in boxes somewhere but I don't know where they are.

be seeing you

Eva

sent off an email this morning to Eva and got a reply fairly quick.

Hey Eva, it's Kevin.

It's bloody cold here in Canada the past couple days (you look cold too on your video)

These Timehole guys that left a comment on your site seem honest enough if.... a bit... stuck in their own little world, if you know what I mean.

Anyways, I hope your essay is coming along alright, this youshi stuff sounds like some kind of yeast product to me (not very appetizing).



Be seeing you.

Kevin.

Hi Kevin

Yes you meet all sorts on the Internet don't you? I like the Time Hole world. Nice to know some people are using the net to help out rather than to rip people off.

Yeast ey? I'll look into it.

It's very windy here.

keep warm

be seeing you

Eva



Not a whole lot there, but thats the nature of this sort of thing I guess. The idea that Youshi is a yeast product was just a guess on my side, it's more of single cell fungus, I think. Although wikipedia list yeast as used in nutritional supplements.

Hi Jon,

That's absolutely brilliant! I'll be putting your photo on my gallery sometime today. You're the first one to put the poster up! Nice houses by the way - looks like a cosy estate. Do your neighbours give their houses a name - Dun Romin or such like?
Don't know about any letters and numbers, are you sure it's not just a scribble or something?

be seeing you

Eva

Hi Eva,

I recieved your poster yesterday, and have just put it up on a telegraph pole on our street. It is one of the main entrances to RAF Waddington, so it gets plenty of traffic and passers-by. I took a picture of myself as requested. I hope this helps!

By the way, I noticed that there was a letter and number written on the back of your letter to me - G4 - I was wondering what it meant?

Jon
