I had emailed Sofia about the dreams, and got a reply.

me wrote:
Heya Sofia, I was just wondering if you were suffering from the dreams like Hernando and Joanna were. If you are, I'm completely sorry in advance. Поговорите с Вами.
(sorry about the failed attempt at russian, google translator isn't the best.)
-Reaper.


She replied with this.

Quote:
Privet Reaper,

Google Russian was quite right,but Russian is pretty easy, learn it, it's cool Smile

Anyway, the dreams is not so pretty part of our travel to Japan. I think, you know, in Japan is the athmosphere very humide. The first time I came from the airplain I was like: wow, I cannot breath, Smile So perhaps my organism wasn't prepared to this, hihi.

Well, I also had that weird dream, but I don't want to speak about it. They weren't really pretty. I want to forget it. Fortunately the dreams are all gone! Perhaps only that hum...

Anyway, it was just nothing compared with that great experiences in Japan, so I advice you to take part on that studentship! It's really cool.

greetings!
Sonia

I don't think its significant, but she signed the message to you the same way she did to me, as Sonia rather than Sofia.

Its the type of thing I would normally chalk up to typos and the like, except it has happened twice, and if you look on her facebook page there is a group or something(cant remember exactly since I saw it last night) that expressly states her name is Sofia, with an F not a PH.

That is freakin' awesome. A little creepy, but awesome. The big question is, are you at home? And if not, are you going home? Can't wait to see how this all plays out.

Also, this is my first time posting in this thread. I'm a little new to this whole ARG world, but man am I really getting into it. Hope I can help you all out at some point.

I am not at home and after not getting an answer for a while I got someone who is at home and nothing weird is there or has happened. Hernando is trying to convince me this is all a big hoax or trick being played on me specifically. lol

Ok, so some of it cleared away, but this is waht I have from my chat with Hernando.

Quote:
Lisa
Mmmmmm good eats.

There for fun?

2:48pmHernando
yeah

started in mexico, went through texas and now here.

going back home tomorrow

2:48pmLisa
Did ytou stop by the EG facility in Mexico while you were there?

2:49pmHernando
wait

do you know someone

called belle ineffabele?


2:49pmLisa
Yep.


2:49pmHernando
she wants to talk to you

apparently very badly


2:50pmLisa
Oh thanks Smile

ineffebele

oops

lol


2:50pmHernando
uh?

she wanted to talk to lisa

2:51pmLisa
Yes I think she thinks I am the other Lisa I asked you about before.

2:51pmHernando
oh

2:52pmLisa
This has been happening since yesterday.

2:52pmHernando
what do you mean?

2:52pmLisa
Well

2:52pmHernando
who is the other lisa?

2:52pmLisa
I am wondering how secure the information at EG is.

Anyone who signed up to receive more information about the grant contest got an email from someone named Lisa.

She/he/it claims that EG is bad.

2:53pmHernando
lisa?

mmmmh.... lisa i dunno who they are. what else did they say

2:54pmLisa
hold on

let me find the email

2:54pmHernando
k

2:55pmLisa
Spread the Word, Eklipse Must fall.

that was the first email

and it had an image attached

It is an upside down EG logo and it says under it:

The Eklipse Global Corporation thinks that it can win. But the world can always trust in the many favoured ones to ensure that their plans fail.

LISA

then

Sometimes ignorance provides not only bliss, but allows you to keep
your sanity.

come no further to us, unless you will join us against EKLIPSE.

So everyone who got the smails thinks they are from me.

But they are not.

2:58pmHernando
this is too freaky. i think this is an elaborate hoax to trick you

2:58pmLisa
but why?

2:59pmHernando
i dunno, why would someone go through a obviously complex and expensive time to trick you?

sounds like a movie

are you making all of this up?

2:59pmLisa
no

i can forward you the email

ask hypnotoad he knows

it is really weirding me out though

3:00pmHernando
>___> weeiiird

who do you think they are

3:00pmLisa
protestors is my bet

animal rights activists maybe?

i mean those people are crazy

3:02pmHernando
yeah, do you think they are the ones who called you?

maybe they are french

3:03pmLisa
brb

3:04pmHernando
k

3:07pmLisa
it could be the ones who called me

This is all so very confusing.

3:09pmHernando
yeah

3:10pmLisa
So do you still have a relationship with EG?

3:11pmHernando
not really

Sad i want to go to japan!

3:12pmLisa
You can hide in my suitcase if I win!

lol

3:12pmHernando
ill try Smile

3:12pmLisa
A friend of mine lives in Germany and is a DJ. He gets to go to Japan all the time. I am jealous of him!

3:12pmHernando
and you can sneak food and sake while i hide under the table

cool

3:12pmLisa
perfect!

So what do you do that you can travel around? Lecture?

3:13pmHernando
oh i am on vacation

3:14pmLisa
I already took my vacation this summer. I wish I was going again.

3:14pmHernando
where did you go

3:14pmLisa
San Francisco and Napa Valley to drink wine

3:14pmHernando
Surprised

san francisco is awesome

3:15pmLisa
yeah I loved it

Alcatraz rocked

3:15pmHernando
i heard is haunted

3:16pmLisa
Heh.

I don't buy it Smile

3:16pmHernando
Smile

lliiiiiiisaaaaaa give me your souuuul.... wooooo......

3:18pmLisa
Oh no! There is a ghost here!

lol

3:18pmHernando
Smile

3:20pmLisa
Well, the boss is calling so I gotta go. Do you mind if I run my entry past you while I am working on it? I'd like to hear what you think.

3:20pmHernando
sure

email it to me

or something

ill talk to you later Smile

3:20pmLisa
ok talk to you later!

Smile

3:20pmHernando
bye bye



Ok, I started to colour code it and all and then stopped. Here is the gist:

He doesn't know any LISA other than me. He thinks that the emails and the phone call I got are someone playing an elaborate trick on me.

He works in neurology I think he said.

When he won his grant he sent in an essay he wrote for a college paper on encephlopods or something. He sent it just for fun and almost immediately a german woman called him and told him that he had won.

The facility in japan is on hokaido. it is on a little island in a lake but it is mostly underground so on googlemaps the top view looks like a castle or a house.

He does not currently have any working relationship with EG.

He wants to go back to japan and will try to fit in my suitcase if I win and promise to feed him sake and food under the table. Smile

Is anyone else impressed? From the looks of Lisa's conversation with Hernando, they have great actors. Also, I'm enthused by the lack of cyphers up to this point. They're really just focusing on the story and plot twists. I'm way in. Way in.

I am very impressed with everything so far.

On a different topic, after reading Angel's Blog page again I did some research in HAARP. Has anyone else done this? It is some spooky stuff if it really can do what everyone speculates that it can do. I'm still looking into it just for the knowledge. It is something that appears to be very real and potentially scary that may have been referenced due to its similar subject of weather control. But Some specualte that it could be used for mind control as well. Creepy.

Again, I am new to this stuff, so if I am wasting anybody's time please let me know. I don't want to be "that guy".

whats weird is i looked up HAARP some time ago, and i think it was in relation to a different ARG. I dont remember if that is the case or not, but, does anyone else remember an ARG that had a HAARP-like reference? sorry for the off-topicness

Ya, HAARP is some scary stuff. I thought it was interesting that when you googlemaps the coords for the actual research facility... half of it is blocked by a cloud or something...
