spec: like last time, the axon not actually needed until Tuesday?

spec: they wanted to see if they could get a flash mob and three people didn't qualify so they blew us off?

spec: we'll see video of three geeks standing around a gallery payphone (holding cellphones, a Blackberry and a recorder) from some spycam tomorrow.

call them? at what number?

The Smithsonian's Renwick Gallery does not have writing on the walls around the phone in their main entrance hall. Nor things taped to the phone. And if they did, then why tell us to be there at a specific time?

options: if we can get 3 people again - one at the gallery phone, one on the street corner, and one at the phones up the street.

in case anyones interested i ran a google search for all numbers on the ilovebees site(site:ilovebees.com 0000000000..9999999999) and the only phone looking number that came up was
264-575 (2079) on http://www.ilovebees.com/reconstruction_archive.2.2.html

I tried wasn't connected.

Confirmation from Buena Park, CA axon (troy) ... it is a phone call. We think we failed.

At least 3 sets of phones were staked out around the Wax Museum (the Starbucks mentioned earlier is in front of it). The phone bank actually at the wax museum was the correct one, and it was the left hand phone.

The person who answered said there was immediately a lot of dialog, multiple voices sounding more like an Operator monologue type of thing, and then a silence and then he was told he wasn't authorized or worthy or something. There didn't seem to be a question to answer, though, and I don't remember if he said anything during the silence or not.

I hope this helps out the next axon.

Troy phone call

[Robynn]

Sorry, I hit submit too fast, edited the post above with additional information.

I don't know if anyone will be back at that phone tomorrow. I can't be, but I hope someone else is.

[TedBelmont]

Not to mention that we are NOT authorized, as we are "spying" on the Op & The Flea..makes me wonder if we've got some of that "Shockingly excessive force" coming...

[Reenee]

I only said that because it wasn't stated what kind of call was it (I don't know if it was to confirm they missed it or not).

Perhaps we need to say the code word, and BRING THE ORDERED LIST of the axon wavs for Melissa to process and read those to her?

[aliendial]

Sounds like we just picked the wrong phone. Tomorrow I can try the phones up (and across) the street.

BTW, I hope Melissa didn't pick a phone that really was [formerly] outside the Gallery. Because that area is all construction now as they turn the area in front of the White House into a pedestrian mall with security barriers and everything (permanently deleting that piece of Pennsylvania Ave and joining Lafayette Park to the White House property). All fenced and dug up.

The payphone site has a listing of a phone near the White House, but it's near the east entrance - over a block away. I don't consider that an option.

[weephun]

Great, now we just need a copy of this "dialogue" posted so we can figure out what the "answer" is supposed to be.

[macklin]

Too bad about the Troy axon... is anyone going there tomorrow? I can try to make it, so anybody else reading this forum in the SoCal area please PM me to link up.
