No I hadnt, until you asked. Just left a second message on the "In Case of Emergency" phone number that was given last Thursday Night. I have also sent a coded message to Ilya asking what kind of Precautions I should be taking (No response yet Message sent approx 3 hours ago), I sent an Email to Ellie telling her I thought I had gotten involved in something over my head (she acussed me of watching to many James Bond films). If there is anything else anyone wants me to try I am more than willing to give it a shot.

 		OK They called back. The US government was on the other line, they said they are investigating US citizens for involvement with the Russians. They stated they had no information on KSW and that they would not be able to assist me. They were VERY clear that KSW is not a concern of thiers only the russian activities, they advised me to call the local police for assistance with KSW. They then asked me to forget the phone number and pretend the conversation had ever taken place. I was asked repeatedly were I had gotten the number I stated it was given to me annonymously(sp?). On a Meta note (unsure if this is IG or not) but it was definetly the same person I spoke to when KSW called me originally.

If the last part is lat/long, the 110th runs straight through China near Haikou and down through Malaysia and near Western Australia. I don't know if that helps any or not.

Also, what are we supposed to do with this geocaching site? Do we e-mail our guesses of the pictures? Do we communicate with them at all about this?

It says "A new game starts soon!" So I guess we wait.

BTW, pics changed again on that site. One of 'em looks like Big Ben

That line about "Look Carefully Around the corner" is new. I tried zooming the picture in, hihglighting all the text areas and read through the source code, nothing hidden that I could find.

Thanks - that makes sense. I've been thinking that the MA might be part of COMMA, but can't quite get there yet. I'll keep working.

Let's assume it is, cause that makes sense too.

MINUS _3DOT(6?)8 COMMA 110DOT5(2or3?)

That makes the digit after the 'S' the most significant. At least a general area which is all that's useful anyway.

 		Christmas Island is pretty close to the 110th longitude, but it is more like 105.

 		I don't seem to be able to upload swf files, but look in your cache for 2231269.swf and 2231327.swf. Multiple images I think? Certainly for the London pic. So, London, Ayers Rock and ???

 		OK, decided to throw caution to the wind and emailed FCD the translation:
AWAITING CARGO IN LOCATION MINUS 63 DOT 68 COMMA 110 DOT 53
This puts it near Antarctica which bothers me, but that's as good as I could get it. We'll see what their reply is.
