Cool! They have two videos in "History". Were they there earlear? Or is it new update?

Hmm... The videos are scientific documentations, but really "not suitable for minors or those that are easily offended."

Shortly: they show Soviet experiments with dogs, e.g. scientists connect amputated dogs heads with various systems which let the dogs head move and act like in "normal life". This isn't linked to youtube. And, man, that is disgusting... (for me as not physiologic and neurologic scientist)

The movies seem to be real documentations from soviet era. I watch without sound (I'm also in my office), but the visionary plot is really Soviet-alike.

BTW, if you are on "News" and scroll down, you'll see some "Error" message with code. What could it be?

And: they mention "lovetheanimals".

Could this homepage be connected in future or is it OOG?

Looking at it now.

From what you have said I can guess that the videos are stock footage documentaries from the cold war era showing the head transplant experiments. I suspect they will be OOG like the ALF video on the Kitsune website.

EDIT 1
Taken from the source code;

ERROR #1235dGhpc2lzdGhla2l0c3VuZXRoZXltaWdodG5vdG5vdGljZXRoYXR3ZWxlZnR0aGlzaGVyZWV2ZXJ5b25laGVhZGJhY2t0b2hxaW5vc2FrYQ==

Some type of coded message I'm willing to bet..

EDIT 2

Respect! Cool
Hehe, interesting.
The third scientist wrote paper "Memory transfer through cannibalism in planarians", according to Wikipedia.

Perhaps is it the "clue of how to find what we searched so long for"? Shocked

Way ahead of you, I believe if you read back thru I already made the speculation that it was this, at least in part, that they were experimenting with...

Soylent Green anyone??

Yeah, that's basically it..

I'm assuming you made this up as I've not come across this particular phrase before....

And I wonder what significance
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"I Ran" by "A Flock of Seagulls"

holds....

Oh, I found your mention of McConnell in this thread. You was right!

Btw, if it's about memories, I can understand these mental enhancements like
Quote:
" It is not uncommon for our members to get real doctorate degrees in one semester, or master the piano in a month."


If they want to cheat with time, it does mean, they transfer and conserve the memories. And - who knows - unscientifically expressed - also transfer the soul?

I think I know exactly what this about now, it was the flatworms that gave it away. Here's a link to the wikipedia article on the flatworm;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatworm

I believe the 'Enlightenment Society' is experimenting with biochemical memory experiments on humans, hence the increased learning power (imagine having the learning abilities of 2 or more people inside you), the 'voices' or side effects that come from taking to much is the result, I believe, of a kind of induced Schizophrenia. It would be logical to assume then in this case that the package of animals Eric received quoted in the diary entry here;

http://bleedingmaroon08.wordpress.com/2008/01/28/

was flatworms. And I'm guessing that this guy is there 3rd mystery scientist;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_V._McConnell

It would be logical to assume that this ATheNA compound they refer to is the human equivalent of whatever it was in the flatworms that caused the memory transfer, or maybe a mix of flatworm and human genetic material.

I know the tests on the flatworms were never exclusively proven, but I am willing to guess that, at least in part, this is what is going on...


I wrote this a couple of pages back, pay particular attention to the section of text I've embolded..

Update from the enlightenment website news page;

Quote:
The Kitsune Liberation Army Website has been eradicated. We thank the efforts of the government of South Korea and Argentina for finding and destroying these mainframes.


And a new page has been added to this website entitled ATheNA. Watch this space...

Interesting. It was right.

Btw, I wonder now, if "I ran" was by "Nazareth"?

(Perhaps the comment by "shapeless" is irritating?)
