I really think you guys are grasping at straws the the Nedry stuff... it's clearly just an allution to Jurassic Park... you should be trying the names of the people actually associated with the site... might have some more luck.

This is probably not relavent, but I found this code on the bottom of the hanso statement. Probably part of the lost arg but it could be a new lead.

as far as i'm concerned, if its on hanso foundation or any old Lost related websites, it's irrelevant. Can anyone post a downloadable swf?

Hmm.

I don't think "Tim Smit" funded this all. You know when you see a truck (It could have been a building too, lmao..), it says "Van Zwaaij Autoserivce". http://www.vanzwaaij.nl/index.html Shblam. I believe they gave him MANY cars, and if you click on "Werkplaats", go down a bit, the blue mercedes looks like one I saw in the video.

So, actual company most likely. Highly doubt it has anything to do with the ARG Razz

@above poster: You mean how to download a swf? if you're using Firefox, go to Tools > Page Info > Media tab, look for the .swf and click "Download" on the bottom.

if you are a student normally a lot of companies are willing to help you in things - even if it's no profit for them.

perhaps it's a relative of him - today your social network can help you for a lot of things.

he might have even asked the authorities to close down the roads for some hours. it's all possible - you just have to ask.

in my city for example you can ask the city to have the permit to use abandoned houses or even factories for whatever you want to - as long as you pay the electricity and water that you use.

Address from the Auto Repair Shop

Not that it makes any difference but the address on the website of the Auto Repair shop does map very close to the power station referred to earlier in this thread. It's too bad there is no Street View on those maps.

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Koopvaardijweg+13+6541+BR+Nijmegen&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ie=UTF8&split=0&gl=us&ei=LBHeSa-EAojflQfLwYxW&t=h&z=16&iwloc=A

Has anyone translated this text from the UEC poster? "Inserivez-vous maintenant! Word nu lid!" Google seems to think its French but I was thinking Dutch and that only results in "Inserivez-vous maintenant! Join now!" I can't remember now how we got to this image but it seems like perhaps there should be a web form to go along with it.

"Inscrivez-vous maintenant" = Join now

That's french.

I suppose "Word nu lidi" is the same in an other language.

it has been translated already.

Join now means the same like Inscrivez-vous maintenant ("Inscribe yourself now")
it's just the same but in 3 languages Wink

 STOP IT PLEASE

to all people who join this quite late:

please stop posting all kinds of connections to rachel blake or hanso foundation if they don't give a 100% usable clue for this - the mentioned websites ares from an old game in 2006!

The Hanso Foundation and Rachael Blake is from an old LOST ARG. It has nothing to do with this.

Alright, in the IRC we did some research on the http://whatsinthebox.nl/pro.css file that I found. According to Marla (Thanks! :3) it would make the background white and "hides a part of the website, the information on the Anti/Paine "part"." Meaning either we're wanted to view what the CSS would make and find something, or we just found what we were supposed to find..
