And a question for the code, is there an easy way to do it without having a copy of watership downs?[i need the practice]


If you can get access to the first 26 epigrams of the book and the chapters they correspond to, that's all you need. It's solved by replacing the quotes with the chapter numbers, and then using simple substitution to replace the numbers with letters.

Email from Port
I emailed Port earlier today with the following...
Quote:
My name is Schwinn. I am associated with Wulf and Courtney. We have had some communication before in the past, before the incident that ended up with you going to DC. You no-doubt have been told by Wulf and Coutney about the events that have transpired over the last couple months. There is a man named Dr Bernard Starr who is mentioned in the manuscripts as some one who has been in contact with Jenny/The Oracle. He has placed an ad on Craigslist (http://newyork.craigslist.org/jsy/mis/1191798801.html) looking for you. I would be warry of using the netbook Alen Rage gave you to contact him use the library computers just in case. Or you can go thru us. I have contacted Dr Starr asking him why he wants to find you and he said,

" Schwinn(?),
Yes I am Dr. Starr and I am trying to find Mr. King at the request of a close mutual friend, it is a very personal matter. I'm afraid I can't help you with your questions, but if you can put me in touch with Port King I would be greatly indebted.
Dr. Starr"

Be careful Mr King, in corresponding with Dr. Starr. There are many people pretending to be something other than what they really are. I know you really have no reason to trust me, but feel free to ask Wulf or Courtney about me and you will find I am on the level.

Mike Schwinn


He did not respond directly to me, but CC'd me the following...

To: pers-jacqm-1191798801SPLATcraigslist.org

My name is Port King and I am a former police detective in New Jersey. I believe that you might be looking for me. You can e-mail me at this address: burgess_alexSPLATyahoo.com.

Port


So I guess the contact has been made and we will see what happens from there.

 		I was BCC'd on the same thing. We probably all were - those of us in contact with Dr. Starr anyway. Hopefully Port goes thru with it.

 		Got this message from Bricker yesterday, which was originally in code:
Quote:
I was at Drakes(?) beach with my family today and Ron showed up. Said he was just making sure I was being good and asked if I had heard from you. I said no. Watch out.


And now this has been posted at the Hazels' blog.

 		Well this is what is supposed to happen according to the manuscript.

Quote:
"The man I need you to find is a police detective in Poland Park, New Jersey named Portnoy King."
"A police detective in New Jersey is the Grim Reaper?" He looked into her glazed eyes, not sure whether to laugh hysterically or vomit his guts out. The walls around him seemed to ripple as if made of liquid and he had to close his eyes and hold tightly to the metal chair; breathing deeply. "You're seriously telling me that?"
The Oracle grimaced, knowing the utter disorientation that she was creating in Starr. "No, Bernard. But I think he may know who is."


So now what? Hopefully Dr B will get Port to the oracle. I guess we need to keep our buddy Arlen away from him

Agreed. I emailed Port and Dr. Bernie - suggesting that Port leave the netbook behind, and anything else Rage may have given him, as he's using it to track him - and possibly lead Rage to the Oracle.

=edit
Just got a reply from Port. Looks like another mass email to all of us:
Quote:
I called him. He's flying out of San Francisco tonight and will be at Liberty early tomorrow morning. What the hell, right? And, for Wulf, I took the casing off of the netbook and didn't notice anything strange or that would resemble a tracking device. It seems okay to me, but thanks.

Mr. King,
My name is Dr. Bernard Starr and I represent a very special woman in Northern California by the name of Jennifer Chamberlain. You may or may not remember her from your time as a police officer when you were assigned to protect her, but she is in great danger at the moment. She made it very clear to me that you are the only one who might help her. I know that this is a bit abrupt and unusual but I would like to come to your location and meet you in person. I will come alone and I assure you that I mean you no harm, I hope to convince you to come to California with me to hear what Ms. Chamberlain has to say. Please e-mail me or call me at 707-xxx-xxxx at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Bernard Starr

 		I really, really don't think Rage is our enemy right now. He's not trying to stop Port from meeting the Oracle; he wants the showdown to occur. Just with a different ending than what we're hoping for. We'll deal with that detail then, but right now? Rage is the only one who can keep track of him.

I don't trust him much, but it's more than I trust 'Dr. Starr' right now. If he really is Dr. Starr. Or the reapperance of the Feds who are trying to cover it all up, keeping them separated, and sabotaging our own work. Enemy of my enemy is my friend, right?

Still sick. If this is the gd swine flu I'm totally blaming our PM.

Here's a copy of an email sent the other day. Sorry it took so long again, but I haven't even sat down @ my computer in days.

Be back soon, hopefully.

Courtney,

I was trying to post to my blog and when I hit submit, it all went to crap and I couldn't log back into it. And now it has a CIA banner. Please help, do you know what's going on?

Port


Sure enough, it's all gone... again. Hazeltine Report is gone, too. I've sent Port a warning message to abandon that email account and run, but who knows if he'll get it in time.

Crossing my fingers that Port got my message on time and he is there on his own doing. That's where he said he'd meet Dr. Starr, so...

 		I also shot off an email to fivetours.

I have a feeling Val Seer mentioned youd be getting visitors.
Reply Forward


Sgt. EKBIt's more than a feeling.....Val Seer mentioned that I'd be getting visitors....Are you one of them? You a fed?

Me: I am not a Fed by far. I would call myself a friend to Her, and to King. So yes Val Seer sent me, I am a friend.

Sorry, I seem to suck at copying my emails over.
