I'm also in contact with this person. They also sent me this line from Richard the third: "You live that shall cry woe for this after. " and this strange line I don't understand: "Go to new York, or find someone there, A phase of Norway is to be found there" I have asked if he means the actual PLACE of Norway, New York.

He also sent me this string of what looks like code, but I'm terrible at these: 1101010101010101192992948201010101029928828apapa
1001ppo"

I also had these subject headings, which seem odd. "twetg.we.get.wep", and "Dispatch; the limit of your lives is out. Re: The time has come.." which had nothing in the body at all.

I have five messages total, all in about ten or twelve minutes.

I don't see any elephants... And he seems to have stopped emailing me for now.

I got this as well - but was trying to decide if it was related to something different.

I couldn't come up with anything for the elephant either.

~~The exact coordinates seem to be inside the building just to the left of the parking garage.~~ The image is too blurry though, I cant see what the signs say. Maybe there's an elephant statue or something inside there.

Scratch that last comment! I just recieved this:

The latin translates into "By the favour of the heavens"

That is what I was thinking. It is definitely inside that building (the pinpoint that is). Wonder if the other side of the building has a sign maybe?

I know there's a really big bull on Wall Street, but that's about as far as I get.

Also there's a long list of businesses at that address on the Google Maps page if anyone wants to take a look through them. Link.

I also got the email... Not sure what to respond or even whether to respond? I'm a little baffled right now...

Got the trailhead too...

"The phrase Benigno Numine is the motto of William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham. It is generally translated as "With the Benevolent Deity" or 'By the Favour of the Heavens,'" and is the motto of Pittsburgh. But you folks can use Google too.

I've got a weird feeling about this, but I'm not going to say anything for fear of the jinx...

ETA The Herald Tribune called the Empire State the world's most famous white elephant. Don't see how that helps, exactly... link

A longer article about Spear is here.
