It takes a day to travel from LA to Singapore. So it really lands tomorrow.

Well. I was wrong; the plane had already landed. This time zone nonsense is difficult. Anyway, I went back to the Singapore Airlines website and looked up flights out of Singapore to Los Angeles on 3/3/07. None showed a departure or arrival time of 2:00PM. Then, since the first flight made a layover in Tokyo, I checked Singapore to Tokyo flights, one of which departs at 2:10PM. This is all very loose, and more than likely means nothing.

That being said, it's flight 64.


*****edit
Just in case it becomes important, Flight 11 landed at 1:37AM. Not sure what time zone. GMT?

Does anyone know if his AIM screenname, "TransientAxiom", has a meaning?

It could, but I don't think so. It basically means an assumption than is not permanent or a transitory idea. My guess is that it's just something vaguely poetic and anonymous enough to use to contact people on AIM.

Maybe a flight from Singapore to New York, or on From Sing to LA that lays over in NY? I would check now, but I'm at work. If I get a chance at lunch time...

Closest I found was flight 326 from Singapore to New York's JFK at 2:30 on 3/3/07.

******edit

So, the 3/3/7 thing is nagging at me. The first date is 2/25/07. Maybe it's not a date.

K: 5:50:10 PM: Is there anything specific we should discuss?
TA: 5:50:51 PM: I only suggest that you organize your information.
K: 5:51:19 PM: *nods* Any further direction would be useful.
K: 5:54:06 PM: We're kind of feeling in the dark right now.
TA: 5:54:15 PM: Completely understandable.
K: 5:54:32 PM: Is there any information you can give us that will point us in roughly the right direction?
TA: 5:54:53 PM: I will do my best to answer any questions you have.
K: 5:55:11 PM: Um. Now I have to come up with some questions. It may take a moment.
K: 5:55:50 PM: zarbathegoat is my friend who wants to help, by the way.
K: 5:55:56 PM: Why did you need Alex's name and location?
K: 5:56:09 PM: And what is the significance of Singapore?
TA: 5:56:16 PM: Because The Man in Japan is not the only one searching for him.
TA: 5:56:23 PM: I assume you've been reading [link: http://www.romxnce.net title: www.romxnce.net ]

TA: 5:56:39 PM: If you notice, there is a comment about Tokyo.
K: 5:56:47 PM: *nods*
TA: 5:56:51 PM: Flight 11 left LAX, and landed in Tokyo on it's way to Singapore.

K: 5:57:14 PM: Who is Peterson?

K: 5:57:34 PM: Ah. That helps.
TA: 5:57:38 PM: I will trust you to finding your own information regarding him.
K: 5:57:43 PM: Why is the man in Tokyo looking for him?
K: 5:57:47 PM: I will certainly do my best.
TA: 5:58:19 PM: The man in Tokyo is tasked with the assassination of Alex Peterson.
K: 5:58:35 PM: Who is on the side that would generally be considered "right"?
TA: 5:59:00 PM: Neither.
K: 5:59:08 PM: Hmmm.
K: 5:59:28 PM: I'm still thinking of questions.
K: 6:00:00 PM: Will you be around long enough this time that I could do a little research right now, or should I save that for after the communication is done for now?
TA: 6:00:18 PM: Unfortunately, my time is short.
K: 6:00:22 PM: Understood.
K: 6:00:46 PM: What did Alex Peterson do that the man in Tokyo is assassinating him for? Or will I find that in my research?
TA: 6:01:31 PM: Alex Peterson is an abomination to certain groups. Apparently, the Russian Mafia is one of them. I imagine after his recent disappearance, he owed them quite a bit of money.
K: 6:01:53 PM: Is he the genetically-modified person?
TA: 6:01:59 PM: He is.
K: 6:02:27 PM: What are you trying to do with Alex?
K: 6:02:34 PM: Or whoever you're sent from?
TA: 6:02:37 PM: Apprehend him. I must be going.
6:02:43 PM: TransientAxiom signed off (was Online)

You know, that's seriously difficult to read without knowing who's speaking. Would you mind editing that to include the screenname of TA?

From my brother:

Every number on that page is prime, with the exception of 25 which is a prime number squared, so the first 5 primes are there. Probably means nothing but you never know.

Also, there will be a total lunar eclipse on March 3, 2007, and the Venerable Piama was declared a saint on 3/3/337.

Again, probably useless.

So, anyone find anything about an Alex Peterson who was genetically modified, is or was in Miami, and got on the bad side of the Russian Mafia? I'm really drawing a blank here. Googling Alex Peterson brings up a bunch of stuff on a singer, which I'm fairly sure isn't related. And I can't figure out what else to Google that doesn't give me a dead end.

That's the same wall I'm at right now. Both Google and Wikipedia are getting me nowhere. Any ideas?

I got nothin' right now. I'll ask around and see if anyone else can come up with something.
