Good find!

OK, I've sent an email to their company address. I hope they respond soon.

Journal Entry

MARCH 12:

If you are reading this journal, then I have failed, and reluctantly pass on to you the secrets I have learned. I deeply regret that I waited until after my father's death to take a proper interest in his passions. I know now that his scholarly pursuits into the mysteries of humanity's ancient cultures created in him the same feelings that I experienced as a young man discovering the wonders of science and genetics.

I had no faith in my father's gods, nor he in mine.

For him, the answers to life's most important questions lay firmly entombed in the past. As for me, I looked only toward the future.

My father was a brilliant man. And in realizing my failings as a son, I became compelled to know the inner workings of his mind. Ironically, in my study of his notes and the volumes, I have found a subject of common interest.

Throughout human history there have been many myths of a great primordial language. A language that was more than just grammar or syntax. A primordial language that described the essential structure of life. The Usprache, as it has been called, was believed to be the language that God used to breathe life into his creations.

Like my father, I have come to believe that the Usprache is not myth at all. Rather, the mythology surrounding the Usprache was a primitive effort by men to describe a concept that was beyond the limits of human understanding in the age in which they lived.

Fragments of truth wrapped in layers of legend.

What does the Usprache represent? What language does the term define? To modern science, DNA is the essential language of life, the great primordial language spoken by all living things.

DNA, the written instructions inscribed in the human genome, contains a written prophecy that comes to pass with each day that we draw breath.

Urgent message
Current mood: exhausted

My friends --

The ancient secret I possess may very well end my life. To evade my pursuers, I will be forced into hiding and will communicate with you through this blog. Whenever I am am able, I will log on and post messages for you that will lead you to the discoveries I have made. Follow the clues, discover the secret, and uncover the conspiracy. And above all, take care for your safety. The Order will stop at nothing to supress knowledge of this dark revelation. I am not without some allies. From time to time, they will post bulletins and messages to this profile to assist you in your journey. I will be in contact soon. Good luck and Godspeed.

Sincerely,

Dr. Joshua Ambergris

 		Has anyone called the good Doctor's phone number yet? I have a feeling that it'll be a live talker on the end.

I called, it's only a message saying we have to find his clues

It's the ISBN of the book this is for.

EDIT: Those of you emailing the admin of the site, what are you saying?

 		I told them that I was a genetics student that was interested in introns (the "junk" DNA) and that I was wondering what could put a nice, safe gene research lab into a "security lockdown" panic. Hopefully they'll respond with interesting clues! But I have the sinking feeling that it'll be a rote "I'm sorry, but we cannot respond right now" brush-off.

I said that I tried contacting the phone number, but it wasn't accepting calls, and asked how to get in touch with Mr. Crowe.

 		E-mail to admin@triadgenomics.com
I just discovered ARGs yesterday, so correct me if I make an ettiqutte mistake. Smile

Here is what I e-mailed adminSPLATtriagenomics.com

Hello,

Your website is not very complete. I was hoping you could answer a few questions for me. How does Triad Genomics plan on utilizing the information gathered by mapping the human genome? I understand some of the practical uses for such information, but what does Triad Genomics hope to do with the information. Private organizations don't tend to gather knowledge for the sake of knowledge. There is usually some sort of a financial benefit or gain for such a company. Any information you could provide would be appreciated.

Thanks,

 		Hmm, a bit of a inconsistancy in Ambergris' Myspace profile.

He's written down that he attended Harvard University Medical School from 1978 to 1983. But right below that it says that he attended Stanford from 1976 to 1980. Is that even possible?

Also, he's put down his fraternity as Theta Chi.

Weird bipolar string of numbers where the first one (6) seems out of place.
It's a count of the numbers from 1-64 going both forward and backward.
Not sure what schema determines the mixing of the two (1-64 and 64-1)

ETA: If the first one was "64" it would make more sense.
