Wouldn't it be weird if the guy in michigan.png is actually 18,000?

I presume it actually lasted a long time, since we see it today. It probably got saved from the fire, which is why it's so special...


Actually, I doubt it. Nothing survived from that fire. 34 people died, I higly doubt a photograph had actually survived..

p.s. If I register I won't have to type that captcha everytime, right? Makes me feel like browsing 4chan...

Okay that picture looks legit to me. Like it hasn't been fucked with on photoshop.

And if that picture was taken by Bachrach Studios, which was only in America at that time, we can rule out her being from Germany. Or at least she left Germany before the age of 6 (when the picture was taken).

So I think it's safe to say all the hitler bullshit can be forgotten now, right?

Nope, no captcha.

And about the photo... maybe it was taken right before the fire and wasn't developed yet, or the owners left it at home, in... Houston? That would explain why that photo doesn't seem like the original to me, either. This one just had the upper part a bit burned up by the 8-3-11 crew, for artistic effect / to mislead us. Maybe they're gonna show us a picture of Belle after the fire, with burn marks and all that.

Maybe this whole game is so that, at the end, they can bring forth some new info on the fire - such as... the fact that it wasn't started by a cigarette. I understand that politicians were in that hotel when it burned up. Maybe it got purposely burned, to cover up something or to kill someone. And the girl is a symbol because she survived it.

This is, of course, just me going through different parts of my imagination but I have to admit it's nice to imagine something that ISN'T related to concentration camps for once Laughing

I understand what you mean, the photo gets shot on 1934 and in the same year it gets burned... Yes, its kind of unlikely. But still, I don't think there is any other notable fire in Michigan from 1934 to date.

And anyway, I dont see how this could get us any closer to the stars reference, or the stones, or the crypto, or the number names, or any other previous clues.

Ok, had to register...

So...the only thing that ties us to Michigan is the name of the image (Which might be just to confuse, they said the name and the content could be different) and the Bachrach watermark (?)

Maybe a Bachrach studio somewhere else in the world?

Look at the article(s) in those photos. Apparently 15 people climbed up on the roof in the hopes of being saved by firemen from there, but the roof caved in. Roof. Retraction.

In the victim's list, I didn't see anyone named Belle, or Bella or anything like that.

She is still alive, and if she actually was in that hotel at the time she must be on some survivors list...

They listed 'victims', 'unacounted for' and 'injured'

My mother languaje is not english, so please tell me what unnacounted for means. I understand it should be like the missing people, right? Or are those the survivors?
