[SOLVED] Beth's Little-Boxes Account Password?

Perhaps this has gone under the radar, but are we still trying to figure out Beth's password on her little-boxes site? Does anyone have any ideas, or is this just a red herring?

With all of the new developments the past couple of days, it might be easy to forget this one.

Yeah, I'm with you, OldMat. I've been working on it a little, certainly there are smarter people that I on this forum who might have more luck.

Well, if you look at any given file, it can be put in any number of categories... I think I even saw one with multiple years listed. Like in Linux where you add groups to users, instead of putting users in groups. The categories are arbitrary and not mutually exclusive.

Well, beth has to be her username because that's the user that posted most of those articles, right? I think that comment on her e-mail list sign-up page is probably there to set the stage for whatever will happen with her and her mom...like another things establishing their relationship.

Beths Little boxes - Is The dog the key?

Right Correct me if i'm wrong but someone maybe on a diff forum mentioned the dog Laika. They came up with a connection to a band of the same name, this strikes me as unfeesible. So what else could it be??

Well It just so happens that Laika is the name of the first dog in space! so maybe that could be the line to follow.

Yeah, I thought that since Beth is so obsessed with uncovering the truth, her password could be the opposite of "evanescence", so I tried various things like "emergence", "revealing" etc., but nothing Sad

Password: indigogirls

You may close this thread, mod dudes.

Not quite yet... There is still a puzzle here (although perhaps this is best treated as a new subject). What is the significance of Beth's bookmarks?

They seem too obviously to relate to the ten plagues. Biblically speaking, they are:

1. Blood
2. Frogs
3. Lice
4. Flies
5. Livestock disease
6. Boils
7. Hail
8. Locusts
9. Darkness
10. Slaying of the first born

Beth's tagged articles, as I have characterized them, relate to the following:

1. Fire
2. Darkness
3. Locusts
4. Livestock disease
5. Darkness
6. Blood
7. Hail
8. Frogs
9. Multiple births
10. Fire
11. Unexplained lights
12. Darkeness
13. Disappearing livestock
14. Flying cat
15. Floating boy
16. Fire
17. Fire
18. Fallen house
19. No color red

Not certain what to make of all this...

I don't think it is what they are but where they are that is important.Cascade Vortex has been floating out there for a while now and I don't know of anything that has come out of it. If you click on the link for Mystery Spot Test Kit it will take you to a Roadside America page. Follow the link Mystery Spots at the bottom of the page and it will take you to another Roadside America page with a list of locations for other mystery spots. The last one on the list is Teton Mystery Spot which is located a few miles south of Jackson, Wy. If you plot Beth's bookmarks for what has happened in the west and midwest on a map, this location fits a pattern.

The west locations are:
Carey ID
Lincoln NE
Aurora NE
Ness City KS
Medicine Bow WY
Southern Idaho
Pocatello ID

Plot Jackson, Wyoming on this map and it seems to fit location as well as the order where the next event should occur.

The bookmarks are a combination of the plague-related events and the ones that were renumbered by the mysterious helper. The first nine are plague-related. The first one, btw, isn't really a plague (the non-thermal fire) but is related to the Moses story, I think. If I remember correctly, Moses was contacted by God in the form of a voice speaking out of a burning bush. Was the bush not burned afterwards or something? I don't entirely remember, but it seems to fit in, so that one may be related to the plagues as well.

However...what's with the Multiple Identical Twin Births event? I don't see the connection there...although I suppose it could be another type of livestock disease.
