Sent my email with this link http://www.purplehell.com/riddletools/alchemy.htm

I ♥ purplehell BTW

Edit: Been having conversation with John via email. He said he didn't see anything in the alchemical symbols that reminded him of the dream symbol and he said he got the feeling that he has seen it before somewhere. He also said he suddenly has a bad feeling in his stomach.

I asked him what foreign language he took in school and asked if was more a feeling of deja vu.

I also e-mailed him, with a link to this -

http://www.blissymbolics.us/dictionary/

I don't know if anybody if familiar with blissymbolics, but it's an ideographic writing system, based on some key symbols that can be modifed and added together to create new vocabulary. I can't find anything that exactly corresponds to John's symbol, but I'm still looking.

It's pretty cool, if nothing else.

Does anyone think that we should just let John know that we've seen that symbol before, and show him the page from the Albany drop?
Maybe it will help to "wake" him up.

So I just finally watched all his videos. Very interesting, seems him and all his friends started makin videos around 2 months ago. I havent finished watching his friends' videos but there may be something in them, anyone bother checking them out?

Also while his older videos dont have much, if anything to do with the ARG, and it seems like they were made just to make it look like a true, real youtube account of a real person, I have noticed that he comments about getting sicker as the videos go on, or showing signs of sickness. Also he talks about technology and how he wants to be able to shape it, and it seems like hes going to say something of some importance in 2 instances but both times is interrupted by his mother.
The 3rd to last video i believe he mentions that he has dug a giant hole for no reason but doesnt really want to bring the camera out there to film it, he doesnt want to bring the technology "out there," like it may be harming it or something.

maybe this mean nothing and maybe I missed some even more in depth info in his past videos, and perhaps this has been brought up and i somehow missed it. Just wanted to share my thoughts though, just in case.

btw I feel like people are giving up on this ARG which saddens me since it really feels like the story is just beginning to break, and there is more and more increased real life interaction which is awesome in an ARG. Hope it goes on!

Not giving up - this has rich backstory and great potential/interaction. I'm just not "interacting" cause I will be out of touch for a couple of weeks soon so I don't want to leave anyone in the lurch.

However, should anything show up in Las Vegas ("New Vegas" maybe), I'm on top of it!
