 		Man, I'm a little disappointed that there's not more detail coming back yet--and nothing yet on RuckusGuy's Bluetooth tip, either! I mean, who am I to complain, right? But still, I was expecting some mad reporting going on over the Interwebs.

 		the DHARMA booth
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x68jn4_ogr_people


an awesome video showing the booth and someone taking the test. We can only hear his answers, though. We can guess at one of the questions, which is "Who is your constant?" which is an obvious allusion to The Constant episode of the last season.

 		They're all moons of Jupiter so far, too.

Also, thanks, Sam G, for the links.

Edited: FWIW, the fact that these names represent both the moons of Jupiter and Zeus's ex-lovers is not exactly coincidental. Three of the four moons mentioned belong to a group of satellites called the Galilean moons. Here's Wikipedia on the Galilean group:

Quote:
The Galilean moons are the four moons of Jupiter discovered by Galileo Galilei. They are the largest of the many moons of Jupiter and derive their names from the lovers of Zeus (the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Jupiter): Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto....

I've also tried to find any Bluetooth devices at or near the booth, but no go (so far). I'm guessing it won't work until I'm actually IN the booth, so we'll see.

He also said to make sure you've got your Bluetooth on and visible – he's rigged up a little something.


You did it wrong, i think. You must have a Bluetooth-enabled device that's turned on and "visable", which i think means is open to any stray communication.

here's the questions I found on another site......................................................
Amalthea test
1. What was your first live concert?
2. What is the sound of terror?
3. What was the first album you bought?
4. Who is your constant?
5. What is the sound of red?
6. When were you last truly happy?

Word association photos:
1. A tree-lined road at night.
2. Skeletons.
3. A child in a sprinkler.
4. Little Red Riding Hood in bed with the wolf.
.................................................................................

Callisto test
1. State your name while holding up a number (they give you the number when you take the test).
2. Repeat the word Continuum three times, louder each time.
3. How are you feeling right now?
4. What animal do you relate to the most?
5. What 3 words best describe you?
6. What's your first memory?
7. Who is your constant?
8. Something like, if anything can happen does that mean that nothing can happen too?
9. Do polar bears make good pets?

Word association photos:
1. A Young boy is squirting a hose onto a young girl.
2. A sign posted an a tree said 'surprise?'
3. A picture of a single lane road in the dark woods.
4. A skeletal side view of the teeth and jaw.

Excellent! It will be interesting to see which connotation this ultimately entails...mythology, astrology, or astronomy, and if it is utilized in the show's plot.

Does the head of Hanso/Dharma fancy himself a diety a la Zeus? Will the Dharma testers be using the zodiac to vet their prospective employees? Or does the secret to moving the island lie within the constellations? Does the force that powers the island come from Jupiter??? LOL!!

I am really excited about this one....wish I was just a couple of hundred miles south of here.....

Hey guys! Tapdawg here. As we know from the secret message in the email from before, there is a bluetooth connection found at the Dharma Initiative booth. Well the connection can be found at the booth, but everyone is having difficulties connecting to the bluetooth device. From what I could tell, most people were asked for a passcode. When I asked the ladies at the booth what the passcode was they did not know and said that we needed to turn off the security settings on our phones. I came back a few minutes later with my laptop to discover that it's not security settings at all, but rather the bluetooth connection was not configured properly. I left in the afternoon today so I was unable to find out if the problem was fixed; however, I told the Dharma employees about it and they said they'd fix it tonight. So if you were able to connect to the bluetooth connection let me know in the comments below, otherwise I'll check again tomorrow to see if they fixed the connection.



Some bad news there. I hope that they fix it.....

 		There's a response posted to that entry now, one that I think may have a good suggestion:

If the Dharma actors are supposed to remain in character, you might've not been supposed to tell them about the bluetooth. That was part of RuckusGuy's instructions for hacking into something of Dharma's...

As for the password, I would've tried "March has 32 days" which was in the source code of that one OGR email.

Yeah I agree. Seems out of character.
