[SPEC][HUMOR]What will we find at the coords? Wet slimy footprints leading away from the GPS point into the city. We'll then get reports of a pod-Dana appearing at the nearest Gap store to buy clothing.

I think it will be Dana look-alikes, who all need YOUR help finding the nearest GameStop... However, due to budget cuts, the look-alikes really don't look alike... in fact, is that five o'clock shadow I'm seeing on one of the Chicago Danas?
EDIT - well, I thought it was funny, vpisteve...

Re: [SPEC][HUMOR]What will we find at the coords? Turns out they will be handing out Single Player Demo copies of Halo 2. This board and the Wiki will promptly implode under the weight of all the people posting "I T0LD U 50!!!1!1!!"

A candy wrapper.
Two cigarette butts (filtered).
A spot of bird poop.

One for the AGES! I laughed so hard!
I think it's pretty obvious that we will all go to these locations and despite all our previous efforts, we will find that this will indeed be the "kick-off" to the real game. A game where we try to locate Aunt M's favorite bra, hidden by a rambunctious AI named Melissa.
EDIT- Also, in a reverent nod to the Founder puzzle, we will also have to make a 3-d model of- er, well...

I've bet my life savings on "dancing robots." The bookie gave me 12 to 1 odds, but I have inside information (this group.)
I'm counting on all of you to be correct. You should feel honored, but be forewarned that if this is wrong, I'm going to have to break all of your kneecaps.

There are a lot of cool anagrams from that, Dorkmaster. I salute you!
For example:
A DRONE ILK IVORY NUT
A UNROOTED IRK VINYL
A DONE NITRO IVY LURK
A TENDON I IVORY LURK
A END VIOLIN YORK RUT
And many, many more.
