Damn! This looks very interesting. I'll check out all the posts after work.

Ooh, this one looks interesting enough for me to maybe dig out my old UF membership.

I've actually been reading this blog since the middle of last year, so it's really been going on that long. I used to think it was viral marketing, but it never went in that direction, so part of me thinks it might be legit.
Curious to see what all of you make of the site.

Oh, I think I may have been the one you mentioned who posted this. I brought it up on the Wyoming Incident board.

There is an update on the blog now that includes a possible connection to a band called The Cowsells.

Good stuff!

Before I got on emailing the guy, has anyone ever received any replies from his address? You mind posting those here if you have?

I just e-mailed the author about an hour ago. No rsponse as of yet -- it is a Friday night, after all.


Something about the underground pictures made me think of the "Doors To Hell" (or something like that -- doors that are portals to Hell?) sites.

If it's not an ARG, I don't know what to think. Some of the images definitely look altered (the "water damage" and the labelling of the children's pictures stick out most for me).

It received a bloggy award on Valentine's Day.

One critic says this:

Actually he addresses the indian head comments in his blog. He does a comparison and concludes they are not alike.

I found that blog in the wyoming incident thread, and was quite intrigued with it. i sent the guy an email a few days ago regarding the 8mm film reels, but no responce.i can post my email to him if you desire.

i too noticed the ARG reference, and was suspicious. the fact that this fellow who emailed about the "americas research gate" thing didn't respond is also a bit fishy.

This looks pretty interesting.
I might have to check this one out.

Wow, I thought this was long gone when I last looked at it, and now there are suddenly updates!

The pictures are pretty clearly faked- it's particularly obvious with the "mugshots" of the kids, because their appearances and the film quality are anachronistic, but the damage is also inconsistent with the usual old photo damage. Still, an interesting set of stuff.

The thing that I can't figure out, though, is that I found this blog shortly after it started, which was wayyyyyy back in fall of 2005. I've been following it since then, thinking that eventually it would get to the point of being an ARG or viral marketing, and it never has! That's kind of a long time to carry on with this thing...especially when there isn't a lot of buzz about it on the internet. I've seen a thread posted about it here and there, but nothing big, and certainly no self-promotion.
So what the heck is it?
