posted this in the main forum, should've probably posted it here

Row-090 Col-01 37.9574 -122.5074 * 37.957319, -122.507456 | 1071 Andersen Dr, SAN RAFAEL, CA, 94901, MARIN COUNTY, US

Not much of interest here, coordinates are the parking lot for a bus depot. There are two USPS Mailboxes in the area and a recycling centre across the street. There are high voltage powerlines everywhere in the area and a waste processing plant further up the road.

All right, I have returned from St. Cloud, MN. Coordinates 45.5533 -94.2096

Exactly where Mapquest points to, there is a Chinese restaurant (The Chinese Phoenix Express). It is on W Division St.
However, it is in the middle of a large retail area. There is a mall with loads of stores, other restaurants, a car dealership, and other stuff on the same block.

OK, I just got back from my little scouting mission to the coords in Las Vegas.

36.1387 -115.1607

The location turned out to be a very vacant area, just north of Circus Circus. A vacant lot on one side of the strip, a construction area on the other.

Ripe for some sort of Geocache if you ask me. Nary a library or ATM in sight, although there is an Internet Cafe within about 30 yards. Also, there's a Guiness Book of Records Museum behind an Arby's nearby. That's about it.

Here are some pics of the area, along with some, um, interesting details. Some graffiti, one of many.....business cards (I don't think the web address isn't in game, but hey, feel free...), and a big clue as to who is behind the game Razz

I didn't have my laptop with me, but with an E-cafe nearby, I wouldn't be surprised if there's wifi access.

As for the hint as to who's behind the game, check the Circus Circus pic, (sort of a joke).

Have been following the game since the beginning. First post here.

I did an unfiction search but couldn't find anything relating to the following:

I did a pretty extensive Google search using the paramaters of "Longitude XXXXXXXX" where X relates to the data from ilovebees.com. I found something that might be of interest.

Lat 43.5695, Long 116.2147 is an exact match for a listing of a Best Western Hotel near DisneyLand

http://www.415travel.com/hotels-United_States-BOISE__ID-BEST_WESTERN_AIRPORT_INN.htm

I don't know how much of a coincidence this is but I though it was worth noting. I remember reading some other posts relating to a connection with DisneyLand so maybe there is some kind of connection.

A number of other Longitudes also match up exactly with some listed hotels, although their latitudes are slightly out, though not by much.

Lat 37.7836. Long -122.4078
Hotel Milano San Fran

Lat 37.0032. Long -122.0201
Inn at Pasatiempo

Lat 41.9399 Long 87.6533
City suites hotel Chicago

These could obviously all be coincidences, but maybe not. I'm thinking there are 3 potential things to consider. 1) It has something to do with a puzzle involving groups of similar sites e.g. hotels, land marks, libraries etc or 2) players involved in the game accessed the Internet from these locations while travelling. 3) The AI is searching for Dana at these locations.

Total spec, but thought it might have relevance.

P.S. Can a mod please check my registration - OBeardedOne - I haven't had a confirmation email from yesterday. Thanks.
