Just got this:

hey Red Hatty,

真是谢谢你的email. 真是不好意思我这么晚才回你的信。希望你不要太介意。

你在你的信里提到说 Eli Hunt 不想和其他的人多提他所知道的线索。而你也觉得不知道能不能信任他。Why you said that?

Hey Red Hatty,

Thank you for your email really. Really sorry I was so late to your letter. I hope you will not mind too.

In your letter you mentioned that Eli Hunt, and other people do not want to mention more than he was aware of clues. And you do not know that he can trust. Why you said that?

Mei Hui,

I am concerned about Eli Hunt because he is the only person we know of so far that knows anything about what has happened to all of you. And he won't share. For all we know, he is behind what has happened to you. Until we know more about him, I do not trust him. I am very worried about Ariande, she is trying to get him to tell her more now.

Did you get the email from Diego? I didn't, but a friend told me about it - another person who has a history of this situation. But it is all in spanish & I can't understand what she says.

 		I got another email from Mei Hui (to my spam folder.. grrr.) I told her about the different "696" codes from the different amnesiacs and suggested it had something to do with 696th Olympiad. She seems to doubt this fact, though...

 		There's always the old spec about the Iliad.
Scroll 5, Verse 696:
Quote:
[663] His comrades bore Sarpedon out of the fight, in great pain by the weight of the spear that was dragging from his wound. They were in such haste and stress [ponos] as they bore him that no one thought of drawing the spear from his thigh so as to let him walk uprightly. Meanwhile the Achaeans carried off the body of Tlepolemos, whereon Odysseus was moved to pity, and panted for the fray as he beheld them. He doubted whether to pursue the son of Zeus, or to make slaughter of the Lycian rank and file; it was not decreed, however, that he should slay the son of Zeus; Athena, therefore, turned him against the main body of the Lycians. He killed Koiranos, Alastor, Chromios, Alkandros, Halios, Noemon, and Prytanis, and would have slain yet more, had not great Hektor marked him, and sped to the front of the fight clad in his suit of mail, filling the Danaans with terror. Sarpedon was glad when he saw him coming, and besought him, saying, "Son of Priam, let me not he here to fall into the hands of the Danaans. Help me, and since I may not return home to gladden the hearts of my wife and of my infant son, let me die within the walls of your city."

[689] Hektor made him no answer, but rushed onward to fall at once upon the Achaeans and. kill many among them. His comrades then bore Sarpedon away and laid him beneath Zeus' spreading oak tree. Pelagon, his friend and comrade drew the spear out of his thigh, but Sarpedon lost his life-breath [psukhê], and a mist came over his eyes. Presently he came to again, for the breath of the north wind as it played upon him gave him new life, and brought him out of the deep swoon into which he had fallen.

[699] Meanwhile the Argives were neither driven towards their ships by Ares and Hektor, nor yet did they attack them; when they knew that Ares was with the Trojans they retreated, but kept their faces still turned towards the foe. Who, then, was first and who last to be slain by Ares and Hektor? They were valiant Teuthras, and Orestes the renowned charioteer, Trechos the Aetolian warrior, Oinomaos, Helenos the son of Oinops, and Oresbios of the gleaming belt, who was possessed of great wealth, and dwelt by the Cephisian lake with the other Boeotians who lived near him, owners of a fertile district [dêmos].


I can't find any likely Poseidon/trident references on book 20 or verse 595 of either the Odyssey or the Iliad.

Also nothing in the catalog of ships in Book 2.
