I seriously doubt it's a book. I don't seem to recall DD#s going much past 4 places on the right side of the decimal (and don't they turn into pub date at some point?) and I'd be REALLY surprised if French Lit - Dialect literature (849.3) did. Are there even 100,000 books in that category?

Could be a phone number (guess the last digit), but that's the Dominican Republic, and only went into service in July. Anyone have free calls to the Caribbean?

Yeah, as much as I'd like this to require some of my randomly acquried librarian knowledge (and thus be charging around like The Librarian and I don't mean the orangutan one) I really don't think that's a Dewey number.

I think we need another plan of attack. Half a set of co-ordinates, to the location of the buried treasure(-y)?

To me it seems unlikely that it's coordinates, since the number is way too high! (normal coordinates are between 0-180)

Seems not to be a classical chat, but an application where you can ask Polly some questions.
You have to start with "Polly, ...".
But up to now the "what is the target" question seems to be the only one that seems valid. I have no time to play around with it now.

You can also overwrite previous things. Polly was answering "Polly, who is Blackbeard?" with "Blackbeard is the captain," but you can change that to "Blackbeard is X" and that changes her answer.

Hahaha. XD

You can't override 'what is the target' though.
