IF RUaWerewolf "Richie" is blogger Richard Salza then his email is Richard.SalzaSPLATgmail.com.

 		The picture Richard received is one of the miscellaneous illustrations in the Nuremburg Chronicle. It's one of the earliest examples of a printed book, printed in 1493. The illustration is called "Wolf-Boy.

Thought the same. GmbH is a German title of a company meaning "Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung" meaning limited liability company. Would fit the teutonic pattern.

I don't think that RUaWerewolf and Richard Salza are the same. Richard does not know what is going on.

I have sent Richard an email:

Hi Richard,

I have read your blog especially about the weird thing you received by mail. Since you know about Teutonic Knights quite well "Tanhäuser" should sound familiar.
Have you ever heard from The New Lupine Institute? Or have you ever had the feeling that you are observed?

Maybe I disturbe you even more with my questions, but I think I (and some friends of me) can help you.

Hope to hear from you
AUZ


and recieved this answer

Richard Salsa wrote:

Wow, Tony, you don't give up do you? I never pictured a jock like you for this kind of head game. Persistent too. Messing with me is so important that you're opening new e-mail accounts?

I'll give you marks for creativity, after that "know your destiny" riff from your last e-mail now you invoke Tannhäuser complete with umlaut. You got me curious. So let's just play your game for a moment. How exactly are you going to "help" me? And what is the "New Lupine Institute," some sort of organic dog food company? Who exactly is supposed to be watching me?


Will try to (slowly) explain what we know.

ETA: And get some information about Tony.

Hi again,

I am not Tony.

We are a group of people who investigate some mystery about this New Lupine Institute - NLI (http://www.newlupineinstitute.org/). During our investigations we found your blog. And even though we don't know exactly, it seems you are involved in what is going on.

We have been able to get our hands on some strange email communication. Some people from NLI are talking about a 17 year old person which they call R.S. And I assume this person is you. We do not know why they are interested in you.

AUZ

BTW. The Umlaut was no problem since I am from the "Teutonic" coutry - which makes communcation with you difficult due to the diferent time zone.


and got this reply:

Richard Salza wrote:

Ok, I checked out the website.

If you are Tony you've just passed far beyond neanderthal name calling and homophobic insults about my earring. My mother died of a brain tumor when I was six you bastard, and if I find out that you're playing some sort of game with that, I'm going to find you, rip your sarcastic lying tongue out of your empty head and shove it down your throat until you choke to death. So, if you are Tony, I'm giving you this once chance to back off and apologize.

That said, since the Tony DeNardo I know and loathe probably has enough vestigial self-respect not to go there, I'm going to take you at your word that you're someone else. So what exactly are you investigating, and what's up with the multiple e-mails?


I will sent him now the file we found.

 		I posted a comment on his blog about the picture he received, but he hasn't approved the comment yet. I hope he knows it's there. It's been a couple hours.

 		Sorry about the double post, but I just received an email from NLI. I inquired about the origin of their name.

NLI wrote:
Thank you for your inquiry,

The New Lupine Institute is named for its predecessor, the Lupine
Institute which operated between 1865 and 1963. The New Lupine Institute
was formed with funding from several allied European philanthropic
organizations, and the name was retained in order to signify a continuity
of its mission.

The NLI Public Information Support Staff

I've underlined words in the disclaimer at the bottom of the email, each is missing a letter and points us to an email address. The space following "information@" appears to be intentional.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
tannhauser at newlupineinstiture.org


*eta I sent a message to the email address, saying thank you for the information about the NLI. I used the polybius square to encrypt a message asking if the email was secure. I received an encrypted hex/rot -21 message.

 		Just for completness. I asked about the different locations (see my poast some days ago) and received this:

I'm assuming he thought I would share the information, send him an email, but encrypt a short message. I'm sure you'll get the same answer. Wink

The WTFery Continues

Know that scene from Akira where Tetsuo wakes up in the hospital, starts tripping out, and starts seeing giant stuffed animals bleeding milk? I'm sorta feeling like that right about now.

Not only am I getting medieval German illustrations (and props to enaxor414 for identifying the freakish thing.) in FedEx packages with bogus tracking numbers, I'm now getting really screwy e-mails. One from "Pers" talking about blood and destiny and god knows what else. And another from "AUZ" who says he's from the "Teutonic" country, but who sounds as if he's from the Black Helicopter brigade, claiming to be from some shadowy group investigating this place.

And he sends me this: {This is the email exchange found in the PW protected directory on NLI website. I've added a copy below. ~ enaxor}

You're kidding, right? This has got to be Tony screwing with me. Can't be a coincidence this happens to write up the little confrontation that got us both suspended and is forcing me through summer school right? That human dildo has way too much time on his hands. I'm torn between calling the cops and bashing his face in.

 		FYI: I had sent the following email to Richard, which he is mentioning in his blog. No personal reply, yet.

Quote:

You can find attached the file we found. we do not know more about it, yet.
Seems like you are a top candidate for whatever. And that it is related to your family history. Are you somehow related to Teutonic knights?

Maybe you are really the one they are searching for since "disposition toward violance" is symptomatic and reading what you would do with Tony .... (no comment) Wink

 		Douple post, but it is a new find....

There is a new file in http://www.newlupineinstitute.org/secure/user/~morgan/files/.Trash/

called "nbyslyfiiechazilgy.tmp"

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Filename is rot-6: theyrelookingforme


again it is a .tif file. It is a quite big file (and I wonder why).

I have not thought about the possibility that Richard will put the file on his blog. I do not think that this was a clever move. They are now searching for me.

Should I now sent him this new file?

 		THX Enaxor, AUZ and, yes, huge file and if all at the NLI deny sending the "Nerumberg Chronicle" to Richard can we suspect that Tannhauser, who wrote he would contact us, did?

Won"t advise but Richard seems quite thick for a smart kid and prolly everything he's sent will wind up on his blog.
