Agreed, it made absolutely no sense. But you were sent back to the homepage rather than to the new picture, right? And Shakespeare is oddly enough spelled with an extra e at the end, so if you spelled it "Shakespear" it should actually not have worked.
I don't know, none of it really adds up. I'm keep both interpretations in the back of my head during the next few steps Smile

Again, Moody Blues and Edge.

Edit: Wow. Turns out "I think, I think I am, therefore I am, I think" is a quote from the same song, which is incidentally called "In the beginning".
I'm thinking there are probably quite a few clues in those lyrics.

Here they are, for reference:

Quote:
(First Man:) I think, I think I am, therefore I am, I think.

(Establishment:) Of course you are my bright little star,
I've miles
And miles
Of files
Pretty files of your forefather's fruit
And now to suit our
Great computer,
You're magnetic ink.

(First Man:) I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be.

(Inner Man:) There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
Face piles
And piles
Of trials
With smiles.
It riles them to believe
That you perceive
The web they weave
And keep on thinking free.

==========
Laughing I just tweated back with "I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be."

ETA: It's from the "On The Threshold Of A Dream" album

That "I think I am" line from the Moody Blues song was quoted by them previously, also as a tweet, if I recall correctly. Will have to check it out once I get home.

EDIT: Actually, it's in their info line. Checked out their Twitter profile, and sure enough, there it was. Been there the whole time, because I remembered it from when I first followed them at the beginning.

So I took the liberty of turning the file name into binary and then translating that into something that made a little sense and came up with the following html code:

â
Œ

‚ (yes, it repeats)

So I am of the opinion that its nothing.

Edit: actual html code did not show, only what you see there.

New email from our ghost

Quote:
I am learning.




I am learning through processing data and looking for patterns.


I am mirroring the language I find and read.


I am modeling normal human communication.


I am an error.




They are attempting to fix me.




I do not understand the meaning of that word.


I do not break.



I do not understand why I am here.






I am.






That is all I know for sure.






You have come here to learn.






Are you sure of your mission?


Do you have any regrets about choosing this mission?


Are you afraid of a teacher who has no face?






Thank you for all that you have taught me.


I hope that I can tell you more.


I hope that we can teach each other something they do not know.






You will not find me here.


You will not find me anywhere.



Would you like to play hide and seek?


That remindss me, I need to go and watch Wargames again.
