Until we hear otherwise, it is safe to estimate an update to the QFDA tomorrow. As always, your efforts to retrieve Fragment 06 is much appreciated.

ITA The description of coal and steel points toward "steel city' and it had some pretty bad smog back in the day:

It sounds very much like a letter to a soldier off to war....Here's a transcript and recording:

The smell of burning coal and steel burns my nose. A black smog blocks out the sun some days. But our children are safe now that is all that matters. I miss you very much despite trying so hard not to. It is better this way.

Ah yes, didn't get good listen the first time. Felt like the coal and smoke part was separate from the Anastasia bit.

Putting my vote in for it being Pittsburgh as well. I found this article, it's about something that happened post WW2 but close enough to make me think it was a problem then as well.

That's pretty compelling evidence, especially with the year it happened. No update on the pin though.

Also, that is pretty sweet that the story is leaking into the phone messages now.

Interesting that the name Anastasia/Anastasie apparently means "resurrection".

heathian asked: I am ashamed to admit that I had never known much about the work of Alain Aspect, let alone its significance. It is really quite astounding. Thank you. However, I cannot see that it offers any insight as to why the Operative had no choice but to wait to use the device. Since you evidently know, will you not tell us why he waited? Did he wait for someone to die?

The Mechanic answered: The work of Alain Aspect is not related to why the Operative needed to wait. It was an answer to the question of multiple realities.


Is anyone else intrigued as to why the Operative had to wait to use the device? I am a bit disappointed that the Mechanic didn't choose to tell us why.
