I see the Fortean Times is back.

Real twisted chain of thought follows:

The Times is made from wood (pulp)
Lead article is Moon landing (or not Moon landing)
Adjacent dvd is "Moon"
Plot of the movie is mining lunar Helium-3
Helium-3 could be an alternate energy source, if there were enough of it.
Helium-3 sells for 4 billion dollars a ton.
The "sleeping giant" is a vast supply of He3 under the mountain, welling up into the old lead mines through a crack (gateway) from near the Earth's mantle (Tartarus), located by our Maad phyicist, and of which I get a 10% cut for keeping the whole thing quiet.

Or it's just an old magazine.

Hi all. Am I hopping on too late for this one? The Rollright Stones is one of my favourite places, and the leylines, and other bits and bobs has me very interested, but am I wasting my time trying to catch up? Oh for a summary post.

Hi Thunderwolf! Reckon you got here for the most exciting bit. Obviously, I know how good you do working on & how much you like really knotty, crtptic puzzles. All your expertise, in fact, will come in handy (plus we always have fun Cool

)

Well, we have 'em, the most recent two on Bob's page at http://www.missingwallace.net/. As the below email elaborates:

Both "wyth.7z" (Welsh for 8 ) and "thecRainbow.7z" are the task at hand. Plus researching the phrase, Arthur unexplained

The prize is a green energy source where the PWs have been leading. OT-LOLZ Just got your tweet so that's super for quick replies.

so we have a wav file which sounds like it needs speeding up, and a text file called "fate.txt" which points to a youtube vid of Bear McCreary's amazing arrangement of All Along The Watchtower from season 3 of Battlestar Galactica (Which is some really nice synchronicity, as I've been listening to that all week in the car), with the following code:

ni ehiq nby zonoly cm ni vy nlujjyx vs cn - ZB

Which doesn't appear to rot into anything meaningful.

RE the fate txt.: It's the Herbert Children of Dune quote at ROT6:" to know the future is to be trapped by it - FH". IF you have time to mess with the audio fine, if not someone else will. BYE
