Hey, it says "Time's Up! Stand by . . .
(More than an hour early)
And if you refresh it briefly shows a bunch of 2's in phone number format (I think).

/me speculates that the game will therefore involve time travel.
BTW, are "we" expecting that tickticktick will be the start? I'm thinking that it will be something else, like homage.html
Of course, I was never a Beast ie boy, so a true homage that includes reference to that will elude me. (That's my excuse for not getting puzzles right.)

tickticktick.html says "Stand by..." since H-Hour ... so that's what we're collectively doing

chemistry.html So... we've got different state license plates... I'm thinking that each state's abbreviation is going to add to a chemical compound as our next clue...
Eight plates...
? + AL + ? + ? + CO + ? + ? + ? + = ?

The language up at the top in red is Portugese -- Babelfish translation is "...and thus it eats."

You say AL, but that's a GA peach, isn't it?
And the first one, black, looks like an old CA plate
Agree that varin is CO
The Alabama one says so at the bottom
The pelican is LA
XX+GA+XX-XX+CO+XX+AL+LA

as soon as i looked at http://www.argn.com/salla.html i noticed that it looks like a subway system map. i went to london a few years ago and i checked an old map that i have and it is a map of the london underground system. i am working on getting a picture of the system, but i am on dial up and the london subway site http://tube.tfl.gov.uk/content/tubemap/default.asp is extremely slow.
also, can someone tell me how the license plate picture was solved?

For what it is worth, the chromosome-things at the end of the triangle puzzle seem to cycle in this order:

Translating to chromosome numbers, that sequence (in the order of Brian's pic) is 10 - 2 - 9 - 4 - 15. The order in which they appeared was 2-9 - 4 - 15 - 10.
Not sure what to do with that sequence though
