Hello my name is Jason Webb and I'm running an editorial on the future of pharmaceutical companies in international health care. As one of the leading companies in your field I would like to get quotes regarding why you believe that Pharmucom will continue to lead the industry. I would also like to interview your founder Charles Kensington so hear his take on how far Pharmucom has come and what roads it may travel down the line. A contact for Ruth Johnson would be quite helpful as well so that I can be as accurate as I can for the article. This is for international publication and want all our readers to embrace Pharmucom as the new world leader in mental and physical health that we know that it can be. Thank you for your time and consideration and hope to hear from you soon.

Best Regards:

Jason Webb

I sent this several days ago but haven't heard a reply. It was the best way I could figure to try and get contact info for them. By the way minz I sent this the day before you posted that message but I obviously like the way you think, and no J. Webb is not my real name but an alias.

 		So, just to clarify something for myself, which may or may not have already been discussed. . .

The ships on the GLL tracker correspond to the Pharmucom Research Facilities, yes? And the 6th represents the secret base?

Also, the Rod of Asclepius can be seen "hidden" in the water by the base on the GLL tracker photo. Has anyone looked for other clues there as well? Maybe by messing with the photo? I'm not terribly good with that sort of thing.

Also, this is my first ARG, so forgive me if I'm a little too eager.

This is the background image from the Black Helix user profile page.



To me, it looks like a blueprint or map of some kind.

Haven't really looked at the writing much, but who knows. Sometimes getting back to the beginning can spark new avenues of thought.

Any ideas?

Hej! Welcome. You have chosen a good game to get started with, I believe.

Just a tought about the Black Helix symbol. We have established (in discussion of the matter here and there in this very long thread) that it is not an actual rod of Ascleipus, since that symbol only has one snake in original. Neighter is it an actual Caduceus (staff of Hermes), because it lacks the wings on top. It is some fusion between the two symbols, and I believe it should be viewed as conveying both the meaning of the Rod of Ascleipus and the Caduceus staff. I suggest we just call it the Black Helix symbol as we have been, to be clear.
(Sorry, the librarian in me nitpicking.)

 		New email from ZT
Our Final Mission

I am contacting you as you have been involved in the hunt for Jessica Harrington, missing now for over three weeks! Some of you may know me, other's may not, but we all share one thing in common, the hunt for the truth. I have received information from an unknown source about the possible location of Jess. I have recruited some of my most loyal followers to assist me in the rescue mission.

I still need all your support, I will be streaming the mission live, finding Jess won't be easy and I may need your help at every step. You will be able to chat to me throughout the stream and I will also supply a phone number to text help. (+44 (0) 7927 944 957)

Interesting that ZT is using the www.theblackhelix.com to host the rescue mission stream... would have thought it should be hosted on the toleratenothing.org site!

 		Not that I know of, doc. That and the issue with the Armucon duping me (Grr... so should have seen that coming...) make me pretty sure this ain't over.

I foresee this going wrong. The game can't be winding up yet, and there's not enough achievements unlocked yet. I bet ZT gets captured, and the story is going to take another twist.

Well, the game is described on the main site as being "over a period of four weeks", and it started on February 25th.

 		Some? Lol I think there's a LOT we've missed, there is obviously a lot of information that we have and haven't figured out which probably means there's atleast an equal amount of stuff we haven't found let alone worked out.

 		They will probably be pounding out the leaks and the achievements in the few days before the rescue to keep everyone enthralled. So I'm willing to bet there will be a spike in activity very soon, plus there are at least five more achievements to unlock.
