Found it - it was 37º 22' 20.38".

ETA: So so far, the location would be in far eastern China?

ETA2: And, since I'm a little eager for this to get rolling, I mapped the possible locations as lines for all possible values for the missing seconds - I did both 121º and -121º, since the latter is in the US, but both versions of -37º land squarely in the ocean.

I'm going to guess it's probably the one that landed you in San Jose. That seems the more likely choice, as we've had a few different things occur in that area. That is, if whom we think is involved - IS involved.. Mr. Bricker. But that would be my only connection.

As far as China? I've been to western China, and Hong Kong - but not that far east. I can't imagine what's over that way. But then again... never can tell.

 		New old pic and new old song: 'sunshineclover.swf' ("Global warming is a scam") and Metallica's No leaf Clover. No new cordinates in code.

Notice the mirrored subject, the fact that Craig is the OS author, that Ferdinand Ochoa is the project maintainer for IRis, and that IRis changed her email address into "<Elizabeth>". And the build date for the OS she is running, is May 4, 2085. That means she is at a point in time after May 4 '85, and that she's been actively developed all the way till then (and possibly further on).

 		We have the final co-ords in the source on the website. They are 40.01.

So that would be either:
Huancui, Weihai, Shandong, China
In the Sea South of Western Australia
In the Sea off the Coast of Chile
1602 Crane Ct, San Jose, CA 95112, USA

The picture is the server stacks and the song I think is new:

Electric Bird by Sia

Someone plugged you in
And sadly they clipped your wings
Now you can't fly away electric bird
Yeah someone took your tweet
One day they fed you that bad seed
You can't fly away electric bird

Well you're art, you fell into this part
You play the victim perfectly holding your beating heart
You used to be so smart
You fluttered round the yard making your magic

Got to set you free, you were blinded by deceit
You can't fly away electric bird
So now this rooms all staged
While you're stuck there in that cage
You can't fly away electric bird

Well you're art, you fell into this part
You play the victim perfectly holding your beating heart
You used to be so smart
You fluttered round the yard making your magic

 		I'm not sure, but I think the Iris email address might have been deleted - I tried sending her an email, and I got a basic bounceback failure message.

Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

Technical details of permanent failure:

The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 #5.1.0 Address rejected irisSPLATsunshinemine15.com (state 14).


I don't know what this might mean, but has anyone else tried emailing her recently? Is my email borked?

We've had this problem every now and then. It might indicate that the time-space tear might be temporarily gone, or it might be some technical error, or IRis might've disappeared from the story. Only time will show.

 		Prince Hal, eh? Here's some of the only usable stuff I found when searching for him (sure, I'm not that good at looking up this kind of references):

Shakespeare wrote a series of plays about a Prince Henry, who is known as Prince Hal for some reason. Here's a brief analysis of the person:
Quote:
Structurally, Prince Hal is at the centre of the play, pulled in at least three different directions: towards Falstaff and the pleasures of the the tavern; towards Hotspur and an ambitious pursuit of honour; and towards his father and a Machiavellian use of power*.

Prince Hal is the nickname of Prince Henry the Fifth. He appears in Shakespeare's plays 'Prince Henry IV' as his son, and as the title role in 'Prince Henry V', as far as I know.
