The link to her blog is here: http://lorimomo.wordpress.com/
Thought I'd get involved, so I message her and she seems to agree that the name Charlotte Bronte must be the clue to the voice mail. But doesn't know what it means yet.

Well I'm not sure how useful the information is but:
Charlotte Bronte was one of three famous sisters.
So as silly as it sounds I tried working with the literal meaning of:
I was Charlotte Bronte and got

That "Do Not Enter" is interesting. It isn't hotlinked.
Anyone figure out the password?

Sweet work, Angelus!

At the airport. Found the locker. The number on it is: 16-15-5-20 and it has a combination lock that needs three 2-digit numbers.... Tried every combination of 30-29-39 (the ages the Bronte sisters died) and nothing works. Must be something else...
Reckon those numbers are a number/letter substitution for "poet" referring to maybe Robert Frost. The Whose woods are these I think I know is a line from his poem "Stopping by Woods On a Snowy Evening". Further clueless about the log in.
ETA: Frost was 88 when he died in 1963 This looks quite fun but am heading to Sleepyville. G'Luck all.

I hadn't even noticed but she's following me as well, along with the usual suspects around here (ARGInsider, J. Waite), so if there was any doubt that this is a trailhead...
She's also following a friend of mine (LabyrinthRat ... He is OOG!) that has absolutely nothing to do with ARGs but is a writer (science fiction), in addition to a few writer types (Gray Wolf Press, a few other writers/bloggers, etc...). So she's searching and picking her follow targets.

ETA: The full poem by Robert Frost...
Quote:
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Whose woods are these I think I know,
His house is in the village though.
He will not see me stopping here,
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer,
To stop without a farmhouse near.
Between the woods and frozen lake,
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake,
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep,
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep.
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Looking at the website source turns up some numbers.
1 -10 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 11 - 12 - 7 - 8 - 9
they could just be formatting notes for whoever made the site, seeing as they correspond with class div tags.

I tried like a million combinations until i got it right:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
User:robertfrost Password:hishouseisinthevillage
EDIT:And After asking where she found her tree picture, i got a reply from Lori with THIS link, which pretty much reveals the answer.
I've got to do stuff right now, so I'll leave the next part to the rest of you for now.
EDIT2:SORRY i posted the wrong password

Now it works, and there's something familiar about that picture.

The image of the Fool tarot is identical to the one on this page I believe:

Not to mention the 'major and minor' bit hints at tarot as well.
