Nevermind, someone was already on top of it. Haha. Apologies.

Actually, it isn't the middle node that is locked when I'm looking at the page--it is the node on the far right, which is labeled as a triptych node.
Yeah, but of the nodes that are connected by the faint lines coming from the word "Triptych Nodes" it is the middle. The center node is the central point, but it is not one of the triptych nodes.

I think the Triptych part is more to do with Pat and Dave's theory, rather than anything more complex - They state that you always find THREE of something, which will then lead you to a main source of power.
For example, three trees on their own, when lined up, would point to a forest.
It suggests that if we solve all three Triptych nodes, we might uncover something huge - but in this case that doesn't make much sense, since the central point is the uplink page.

Actually, I was just thinking that the FEED BEEF FACE node could indicate that this is Eva, or maybe even Keir, since she told him about that. The legacy program could be her father, and then we just would have to figure out what the third thing is. These would all be connected by US, in the center. We're the logic matrix which is supposed to figure out the interactions between the three.
Does that sound a little more plausible?

Well consider that in triptych art, the three parts add up to a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. Perhaps their theory is correct but a little of. Maybe it will not lead us somewhere but will in fact provide us with a bigger picture of what is going on.

Printing it out in blocks Carmenmiranda, you are being silly, dear. Printing it out? That's ridiculous. You use a layout program to do it of course. I'm working on it right now in InDesign.

This may mean nothing, but:
The picture has four dots, but the part that says "Triptych nodes" is the top of a four-cornered pyramid--three of the corners match up to dots, and the fourth is outside of the circle circumscribed by the other three. The uplink link is in the middle.

Now that Eva can hear us, the uplink page is curently the only way (apart from relying on Prof Wilson) to contact her. Unfortunately my phone doesn't do picture messages, but we probably need some one to start putting stuff onto the uplink page.

Not a bad plan.
At any rate, just in case this means something, I took the brain photo on the connect page, and superimposed a brain map on it (one I got off of a random site online), and then put pink dots on where the four existing points are, and on the fourth corner of the pyramid where there is no dot. This is what I got:
I'm still on a "Frankie is Evil" kick. She was, after all, into "mind mapping" which doesn't usually mean the same thing as "brain mapping," but I suspect her anyway.

So, I know I'm obsessed, and all that, but if you look at the source of the Access.html page, you will see that the links on the brain are set up using a map. For those non-geeks in the crowd, this means that you tell the browser which coordinates on the image should "map" to an HTML link.
There is a "link" in this map that looks like this:
area shape="circle" coords="-26,193,0" href="#"
Which means that the coordinates are off of the left edge of the picture, and they link to this same page.
There are no coincidences, so this must mean something. Those coordinates mean anything to anyone else?

The way it's been edited looks like it was created with a package like dreameaver, and whoever created it, simply clicked on the map by mistake as the circle has a radius of zero? and linking to the same page is default behaviour for dreamweaver. Just my 2 cents <shrug>

Contacting Frankie or Wilson I don't think we should do it. Here's a link as to my thinking on this.

I've emailled Frankie simply asking if there has been any output from the core, or if she has had any contact from Eva, but no reply yet. I made absolutley no mention of our contact with Eva.
Eva's email is still bouncing messages, so that's a bust.
