according to IMDB the release date is 17 October 2008. the digits most likely are (when unscrambled) 102008


Yeah, someone had mentioned that before, my guess is it's just a clue to suggest that it is an anagram and not anything to do with the rest of the anagram itself. But I could be way off the mark.

 		Mike's Flicker Pictures
Ok, not sure how important this is, but I did a little walking around the streets of LA with Google street view. I started at the address shown for a parking garage in one Mike's flicker pictures (DSC04917.JPG). This location is about one block away from the location of the quarantined building. I think the pictures are clues of some sort, but I haven't worked it out yet. Here's a pic of what I mean

 		Also, looks like we have two more players..

Sarah Moore, who is running the "The Night Shift Show" facebook page, and, if you go to "view friends" you'll see Mary Mallon.

And, lol, just noticed this. Highlighting the facebook page link on whathappenedtoangela gives you this:

it's been mentioned before, but they're not being very inconspicuous about this hehe

 		Great find! Mary Mallon was the name of the infamous Typhoid Mary, who infected a lot of people with Typhoid back in the early 1900s before she was quarantined....

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

I've requested to be added to both friends lists.

NICE catch! I didn't think to google it. That name choice CAN'T be a coincidence.

Hi Sarah,

A couple friends and I have been helping Eric and Mike(lastpalmtree.blogspot.com) try to get to the bottom of the events that took place on 3/11/2008. From what we can tell, reporter Angela Vidal was last seen at this building: http://lastpalmtree.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-photos.html which is located at the corner of S Normandie Ave, and W 7th St. in LA. It appears there was some type of viral outbreak at that building that night, and it was put under quarantine by the CDC, but we're not sure what happened to everyone that was inside. Eric was able to find a news clip from that night, and posted it on his youtube. Here's the link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7AnTpPL7rlw

It also appears that a fire fighter has gone missing that night as well, and his brother, Russel, is trying to find him.

Also, do the words "map our logic 108020" mean anything to you? It seems to be an anagram that Russel flashed in his video located at http://youtube.com/watch?v=DsF2EG0nrNE

If you have any other information about what may have been happening the night of 3/11/08, that'd be appreciated.

In the meanwhile, we're still trying to get to the bottom of this..

-Chris


I didn't see the correspondence she's had with Mary on her facebook page before sending that and asking about the anagram. Looks like they're confirming April 10th, 2008, as well as the remaining letters..or it's just to throw us off.

I haven't found out anything but I did see people are trying to solve the map our logic 108020 anagram. Might be a clue.

 		I haven't noticed anyone mentioning the anonymous comment on Last Palm Tree, but I think it may be a clue of some sort:-

The ambassador was onced Quarantined in 1977. Guests at the hotel had to stay inside for 48 hours straight. That's also the hotel where RFK was shot. I heard they are building a school there now.

Mike also posted a pic of the Ambassador along with the other pics.

EDIT: My initial searches for more information on the quarantine of the Ambassador in 1977 have come up with nothing. Plenty of information on the hotel otherwise, but nothing on a quarantine. I'll keep digging.

 		For the record, the name of the TV show in the Spanish movie, "REC", translates to "while you sleep".

Sony needs to get the hang of this ARG business; they are not particularly subtle. That "whathappenedtoangela.com" site has URLs pointing to Sony Pictures in it as well.

*EDIT*
Sarah accepted me as her friend. Christ, her Facebook has a direct link to the Quarantine ad on Facebook ( http://www.facebook.com/ContainTheTruth ).

Christ, Sony... at least try to hide reality a little bit! Don't make it so blatantly obvious; we know already!!!

Heh, yeah, I noticed that too. There have also been some less than subtle nudges towards the April 10 2008 thing (do we even need to unscramble the remaining letters? Best I can come up with is "coo gum" Smile ) I guess they want to try and hook non-ARG veterans too.

could the anagram be a website?


Another subtle nudge. So, it looks like we can extract com from our anagram too, leaving gou (U Go?). I've tried a few combinations of what we've unscrambled so far, but haven't found a site yet. But, it's still early on 10 April, so it may be that it won't be up until later.

Edit: OK, I missed the last post on Last Palm Tree:-

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

...
Also, that anagram in Russell's video?

Ugo.com April 10th 2008. Thanks Kevin for the email. I think you cracked it.
