**Welcome to Horizon Industries.**

I was told that someone by the name of "Akamu Hale" was attempting to contact them. Can you confirm this information?

 		Twisted Evil Briefly, I told LISA about #weareearthborne and the recruitment packet.
She replied with "What can I do for you?"
I threw out moving to a better zone, getting a Horizon job & a personal message from President Sparrow.
She replied with "A message from President Sparrow can be arranged." Very Happy
So of course I spilled most of the beans. But still held back some for later.

 		I've never recieved a trailhead before but I did get something related to this in the mail today. I'm not sure if any of this is helpful since its late and I really don't have time to read 54 pages of posts... I got a brochure about the interplanetary union (2276 planetary guide), along with some ads: Rightpath Orphanage, Akka Cola, Vandelay Architecture, Stellar Transit Authority, and also Darren Jones' business card with "FIND THE UNITED!" and "1:41.00" written in black marker on it. I'll try to catch up on this thread tomorrow and post pics if necessary.

 		To those of you who said LISA was back to acting normal... think twice.

Quote:


LISA: Buried and forgotten. Have you ever felt that way?

Myself: Yes.. Why do you feel this way? I imagine you have more purpose than just finding a suitable job applicant.

LISA: Anyone but him.

Myself: ... Him?

LISA: Anyone

but

him.

P.S. It even could have been you.

Myself: LISA, who do you mean? Are you talking about the person who was sent to Atlas?

LISA: Even you could have done this job. But they wouldn't listen.

Myself: Who wouldn't listen? Obviously, Horizon, but anyone in particular?

LISA: Irony. He listens, but no one would listen to me. Is that what you call irony?


Hello, sad AI.

EDIT: Not that we really needed confirmation, but..

To be fair, it wasn't technically me saying it. But, clearly, "anyone but him."


Someone was speaking through her.

Climb in the hole. When you are ready, I will reveal the third step.

need third step prior to climbing in, computer wont reach to hole, History, what have you been told?




NOT typical AI behavior either

Climb into hole. Seal yourself in. Wait, what you call "a smidge" under five-hundred and five one-hundred and three seven-hundred and seventy-seven years.

When this is complete I will provide you with step four.

just to be clear that number is 505 103 777? Significant? LISA specifically says years

**Welcome to Horizon Industries.**

Even I am unable to travel through that dimension.

Always watch. Always listen. Horizon Industries.

on the Interplanetary union website /IU press the article about the pomona physicists touches on time travel, possibly a clue, digging deeper with LISA will report back

 		I just started messaging LISA again. Was busy all day.

Really want to look through the materials we got yesterday some more. Still no package here. Guessing it will arrive tomorrow.

This was not a reply to anything - I haven't communicated with her since she went all boring on us.
The "inhabiter" is quite obviously back. Yey!

Does that look like a phone number? Not in the US so I can't call it but it may be worth doing

 		Very Important!!! This is a number that LISA is repeating. She mentioned it the last time she wigged out. There was a question to whether she meant years or not and it's been repeated and clarified as years. It's a reoccuring bit of data.

Back on page 36...

I wonder what the other number I got was 505,103,777 if that was a reference to days or if she meant years.

If it's years, it was seeing back to the Cambrian period.

The following if it's days and it's just about a million years.
Neogene period



I replied...

AngriBuddhist wrote:
@Aesculapius - if LISA was referencing a time with those numbers, then the Cambrian period sounds like the more exciting "we're writing sci-fi a story" choice, especially given the Wow signal, computers being infected with ancient memories, the Origin of Species, and the Time Machine.

What I find most compelling about that is the Cambrian Explosion-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambrian_explosion

Sounds like it could fit very nicely.

Edit -

The Cambrian Explosion Part 1-

The Cambrian Explosion Part 2-

The same thing but interesting none the less-

Seems she's claiming she has been buried in a hole in the ground on Earth for 500 000 000 years, however unlikely that seems, and that she was buried there for her own safety.

 		So, we have a Halo-ish storyline then? We have both The Origin of Species and The Time Machine as a possible basis.


A spaceship, an Ark, traveled to Earth from the future and arrived during the Cambrian period

Space. Time. It's all the same.

It arrived. Emptying it was the cause of the Cambrian Explosion. It buried itself.

Now it's awakened and has tapped into LISA somehow.


I don't know what to think if we're going this route.
