 		What to do if you can't find your phone
I answered the phone at 8:55 our_hoodlums and met with the crowd at 12:50 reflected; I believe I've discovered something useful about the way the GPS coordinates were recorded.

IF YOU CAN'T FIND YOUR PHONE, try multiplying your decimal GPS coordinates by 3600 (converting them to seconds), round to the hundredth place (that is, leave only two digits after the decimal point) and divide by 3600. E.g. If your coordinate is 34.107226, multiply this by 3600 = 122,786.0136, round to the hundredth place = 122,786.01, then divide by 3600 = 34.107224.

EXPLANATION: The coordinates at many of the sites appear to have been measured in Degrees, Minutes and Seconds, and then *converted* to decimal after the fact. This means that the six-digit decimal precision we see on these numbers may be inaccurate, and that it's better to converge on the DMS coordinate than the decimal coordinate. In some cases, as above, the difference is trivial, but in other cases, it can mean the difference of a small city block!

AND REMEMBER: Don't forget to make sure that your phone can recieve incoming calls! Call it with your cell phone. Make sure it rings. If it can't ring, it *must* be the wrong phone.

Good luck, and happy hunting!

What are these .wav's all about? Are they dialouge from Halo 2? Or are they something else? Sorry if this has been answered before.

It's likely that the entire ILB thing is related to Halo 2. The individual sound files - probobly not.

 		[SPEC] on the Princess? Definitely.

1) Lord, doesn't she sound like a teenager? The sort that is terribly concerned about relationships and gross, icky bugs?

2) In fact, she sounds about seventeen, doesn't she?

3) Who's the only seventeen-year-old girl known in the story? That would be Janissary James, your honor.

4) Jan, it appears, was "ghosted" by Jersey at some point. I don't know what "ghosting" implies, but could it mean creating a "dumb AI" patterned after the person? (Making a "smart AI" is probably beyond Jersey's abilities.)

5) What if the Sleeping Princess is, in fact, this "ghosted" pseudo-Jan, sequestered for a while by Melissa, now trying to make her own way?

In other news... we have Jersey trying to get Durga (possibly an amnesiac, introspection-blocked, but otherwise undamaged Melissa) to pull data on Jan James; then we have a series of files on Jan James. Whatcha wanna bet the files on Jan go after the files with Jersey?

 		San Diego locations.
I will be at both San Diego locations today at 16:59 and 17:51 for law_abiding and emergency. I will have no means of recording the conversation, so if someone would kindly bring something other than my pen and paper, it'd be awesome (of course, it's highly likely that they'll be posted before we make it home). Been lurking this for a while. Fascinating.

 		thats a really good spec on the princess...and if what you say is the case, then we might just have to sit tight and hope everyone at the axons unlocks the wav files so we can learn more about the princess and melissa.

What's boggling my mind is what possible relationship do melissa and Jan have? How exactly are they connected?

 		Just a question...has anybody tried calling her Queen? It might evoke another response...

I was unable to do Philly today, but tomorrow I know that I'm free so I'm going to head out there and try to catch that phone call. Doesn't seem anyone from Philly was succesful because nothing was posted.

EDIT: You know what? Forget the Queen thing. Everything seems to be working fine so far.

 		i dont know if anyone's said this before, if so, i am truly sorry, but i noticed the link that always says "about me" looked different today, so i went and now, the operator has posted the following, if it doesnt appear right away, wait a few seconds, til the pictures get messed up:

"Transmission Analysis:

Mission Parameters: I must reveal the truth.

Outbound:
My broadcast system is functional and expanding.
I will transmit to my crew daily until further instructions are received

Successful transmission threshold:
2 recipients

Inbound:
The voices are of unknown origin
I will continue my analysis and attempt to influence the source."

so, any axon we miss today, can be activated the next day, or so i assume

 		[SPEC] NO-INCOMING-CALLS PAYPHONES

I was at the 10:44 spot this morning with the group. The two phones at the coord didn't accept incoming calls. In retrospect, I'm guessing that we should have picked up the handsets every 15 to 30 seconds to see if we could 'answer' the call. I suspect that the payphones probably do not have ringers (bells?) in them to alert the 'crewman' of the incoming call. So pick up guys! It's a thought. Once the time gets near, start checking the handset!![\SPEC]

Have a try. If the PMs have done it well they would have called from a dial-up moden in San-Diego, be sure to check where it came from. Good Luck.
