I tried too for awhile. The image is too low res for me to sharpen and determine what kind of characters are on it. D:


When I saw it I immediately thought of the Roswell I beam

Its not a perfect match but it is somewhat similar.

I saw basically the same thing 21470.64 sounds to me like 1/2 of a lat/long location.

Lat/Lon coords can't go that high. Normally they go from -90 to 90.

If you take the first 4 as a + sign and that separating lat from long you get 21 and 70.64 which is in India.

This is what we came up with as the audio at the beginning:

"Groom Lake One, Wright-Patt [SITREP?] ETA. Over."
"Wright-Patt, Groom Lake One actual. Cargo intact, ETA on schedule."
"Copy Groom Lake One, expect your..."
"OH MY GOD."

Groom Lake is a dry lake bed just north of Area 51, so probably the callsign for the train as someone mentioned above. SITREP = Situation Report. It sounds like the train operator talking to dispatch at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base...

You sir are correct. I looked at it, and that was the first thing that popped into my head, but you are completely correct, that would be an impossible number for a lat/long. I still think I see a . in it though, 21470.64, am I the only one, or does someone else see it?

Actually I thought it was a phone number as well but what I see is 2177044

I agree that an IP address is possible, but I am unable to get it to resolve to anything.

As a complete noob, I'm not sure whether what I'm about to say will make any sense...

That being said, the numbers on the pole (I saw 21+70.64 at first) reminded me of the markers they use to show location.

I wasn't sure how to describe this, so I found this as an illustration. See if it makes more sense than I do.

http://www.duchesnegov.net/surveyor/t2sr6w/PLAT/481.pdf

You see how each thing is marked with an increasing number? That what this reminds me of, anyway.

Like I said, I'm new at this stuff (brand new - introduced to the ARG concept 2 days ago, in fact) so forgive me if this... was completely worthless.

It totally looks like an "i" before the 2147064. We were definitely supposed to see this picture OMG11!1!

The more I look at it, the more this is what I'm seeing:

21‡70.64
or
21‡7Q64

The + sign looks more like a double dagger to me. I haven't found anything with it yet, though. I'm still looking...
