 		No real standout anagrams, either. Autoclave? Something "clue"?

*Edit* - Looks like they are moving everything to a private server. Is COATVALUE something we need to get onto the new server?

 		Man of few words
I got a reply from Kane....to the update suggested (pg 11 I think it was) but couldn't get on yesterday.

All he responded with was:

COATVALUE

If this has been covered, so be it. I've got to backtrack for 3 pages to catch up. Hope that helps. It might make more sense to me when I get to page 12.

Edit: okay so soon as it posted I see he's sent this elsewhere too.

 		Is it possible that "COATVALUE" is the key needed to decrypt that cipher?

 		COATVALUE is an anagram of AUTOCLAVE. Probably just coincidence, though.

 		wiki?
Did anyone do a wiki on this or put this all in any sort of order of appearance? That might be helpful if it was organized ;-p

I got the coatvalue too. I guess I missed the updating yesterday or overnight - the Ides of March is the 15th, and serves historically as a warning of a betrayal and assassination. Also in one of the messages on ames or camel, they said they would be ready by the end of March. That gives a timeframe of 2 weeks to get it figured out.

The religious connotations and war should be obvious so I can't help but be drawn back to the location of Bohemian Grove itself and what it represents....those with power on a power trip indulging in the warped religious rituals.

Could coatvalue be a key for the code on the login page maybe?

Maybe there is a vial in the autoclave ;-p

I think we could or at least should for the record, look at all these extraneous letters he's adding to words or leaving out of them, to check for relevance here. He's not spelling words incorrectly out of context so the additions or omissions seem more deliberate. And he did use the same focus in the apology with the first letters mapping out a directive.

In the post still showing when you click the period is there - founders page - they've not removed that, yet the other pages are gone...but that one did have "shipment" as part of these letters.

Just a thought.

 		Here's a list of the ones I think we have so far.
The three projects from Kane's apology
The clue for oppenheimer
The Oppenheimer page

Yup boss, it's the same situation here. We just can't find it.

The BASE team found out the approximate coordinates to the 3 locations. We'll be sending
them to your team soon.
anyways, I overheard Atkins talking on the phone yesterday night at lab09. There is a rumor about a fourth vial..
what gives?


ames
BACKUP since 05/07/01 at 12:11:56 AM
Mr.Tatiano, we are having difficulty locating the vial at CODE AMES. It could have been easily misplaced, during the fifty years and all...
Our team will continue our search, but we doubt that we would find the capsule.

You do not understand. We need all three vials. Missing even one will ruin this project.
Rafael, your mission is obligatory. If you return to the BASE without it, your brother is dead.


trinity
BACKUP since 11/17/02 at 17:36:07 PM
CODE TRINITY should now be ready for initiation to phase 2.
In case of emergency, contact Luke right away.

Atkins will be ready with the three vials by the end of March.
Please provide him with the coordinates to the location.
We'll meet you at the BASE when the phase is finished at the other two stations.

Regional directors, please provide the three prominent sicurezza code when initialization begins.
Initialization Progress: 75%


Whaddami midding?

 		Well, I had some time to kill earlier, so I played around with the code. It's way too short to have any real connection to frequency tables but I tried anyway. Then I spent a while playing with Vigenere keys... Here's the ones that yielded nothing, if it helps:

Prophet, prophets, coatvalue, autoclave, brunt, brutus, julius, caesar, oppenheimer, roosevelt, viscera, visce, vials, bomb, luke, ides, fdr, savior, danger, italy.

Using 'sicurezza' as a key gives you gibberish that is almost words but not quite--frustrating: "LBEAR IMN OFK FZPNAY DG DP PGNKVY TCP OGNYGT."

Do we have a full list of the added or omitted letters? I guess we're excluding "oppen" from that, since it was a hint to use oppenheimer as a password... Just speculating.

 		Okay, the news says visce was transfered to a private server...but that private server is hella slow cause now the page takes forever to load. (-_-)

has anyone noticed the "x:" before the jibberish?


Could it be an x to designate one axis of coordinates...that's where my brain goes because of the map we got yesterday.

 		I take it then that no-one has seen this yet? -
http://visce.com/images/comp.gif

I guess this might appear later once the initialisation starts and the codes are in. The three red dots correspond, from left to right, to camel, trinity, and ames project sites (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Manhattan_Project_US_Map.png), and the lines, chords, and other points seem to be similar geometrics from these.

I think the thing to do is try and get the coordinates for the project sites and extrapolate the fourth point based on that. I'll have a quick look at it now.

http://visce.com/images/ - ini.gif is the normal image displayed, ini1 and ini2 look like intermediary stages before 'comp': note that trinity lights up first, then ames, then camel.

I'm busy trying to get co-ords for the three project sites.

Project Trinity (Alamogordo) is 33.40'30N 106.28'30"W. It's "image not found on Google Earth" Shocked
edit:
Approximately - I couldn't get exact locations:
Project Ames (Ames) is 42.01'26"N 93.38'51"W, and
Project Camel (Inyokern) is 35.38'50"N 117.48'52"W.

 		Should we email those coordinates to Kane?
