Possibly "Military Legacy"? An old military project?

Thanks for that - but what methodology did you use to plot this out? I don't quite follow your working.

Use A-T along the X-axis and 1-15 on the Y-axis and plot the coordinates from the Yuki Toy clue. ie E4 and E6 and join them, K2 and N2 and join them etc. Then plot the top coordinates as boxes and hey presto.....y2kbozos diagram!

MkUltra was mind control
Stargate was extra sensory perception

The MKULTRA thing is ringing huge bells with me. If Timehole enjoy referencing previous ARG's, then any MKULTRA connection would be a direct nod to MAJESTIC - the failed commercial ARG put out by Electronic Arts several years ago. It's entire theme was based on the MKULTRA experiements - the CIA even went as far as combining LSD and hypnosis to program sleeper agents, who could be activated by a code word and made to assasinate someone. Problem was, the code-word would tend to crop up in the middle of an everyday conversation, and then the subject would switch to "ready" mode and just stand there.

I think we may be on the right lines with the psychic abilities theory though. Follow the dots...

Just so I don't threadjack this topic with my crazy theories, I've opened a new thread for discussion on the idea here

EDIT: I took out the actual spec, which is now preserved in that^ new thread. yanka.

May be some confusion here for the non-UK players

M.O.D. stands for the Ministry of Defence.
