[EMail] from Ron 09/21

After I found theseventhsons website, I sent a message to Ron warning him to be careful while at GMH. In summary he will be in Nevada by tomorrow and is planning on meeting Jaimie before he goes to GMH. He will be uploading the other file from TT soon. He said to watch for a message in some form and he will use the "usual method" to hide the file.

Quote:
Thanks a lot for the warning about the Gold Mine Hotel; you're not the only who has tried to alert me to the possible connection between the Hotel and the Cambridge Mental Hospital. I still haven't figured out what's going on with those sound files and the images you guys found within them but it sure looks like there has to be some connection there, doesn't it?

"The Seventh Sons", eh? Not a name I necessarily recognize but it sure sounds like it makes sense with everything else we have found. BTW, have you seen this?

www.theseventhsons.com

There doesn't seem to be anything there except that strange symbol but it certainly bears keeping an eye on, I think.

I promise I'll be very careful while checking out the Hotel in Gold Hill, if I can get access to it that is. I mean, it isn't even open yet and undergoing reconstruction from what I can tell so I may have to try and smooth talk my way in there. Maybe this Jaimie from the Dread House site will have some ideas along those lines. I should be in Nevada by tomorrow and have made plans to meet with her somewhere first, before heading down to Gold Hill in the next few days.

I'm hoping to be someplace in the next few days where I can upload the remaining encrypted file I found also. I'll probably use my "usual methods" because of the content that might be on them, so watch out for another message from me of some sort.

Thanks for all your help, Roxie, and please be careful. I'm afraid the people who are helping me may be more vulnerable than I am since they are not on the move like me.

Ron

Neuroslime got an email from Ron today too. I think this will clear up the pleasure to burn spec.

Quote:
Neuroslime:

Yeah, don't worry - I can certainly identify with being dragged into this whole thing against my will. Even though I've come to understand why he did it, I'd still like to get my hands on Ed for getting me involved in the first place. Although, with what I've learned about Tomorrow's Talk now, I guess it's not somewhere I really want to be anyway.

As far as my motivation in this whole affair, I don't really know what to tell you besides what you already know. My initial and primary motivation was to stay alive. When I first started finding all this stuff out about Dread House and the company's past, I had no intention of going on any type of crusade to find the truth. Hell, I didn't even believe any of it until I found proof that my life might be in danger too. That's when I fled Tomorrow's Talk. Since then I've come to believe that exposing them and getting to the truth of this whole affair might be indeed the best way for me to stay alive.

I have checked with a couple of sources back in NYC who confirm for me that there was indeed a fire at the Tomorrow's Talk Studio offices and that Randall died in the fire. I have to admit that I feel terrible about his death and somewhat responsible. I'm afraid they killed him because of my phone call to him earlier that day. That's one of the reasons that I am so hesitant to involve anyone else, like yourself.

I'm hoping to be someplace in the next few days where I can upload the remaining encrypted file I found also. I'll probably use my "usual methods" because of the content that might be on them, so watch out for another message from me of some sort. I don't know what good it will do us without the password to open the file but maybe someone will be able to figure it out anyway.

Please be careful.

Ron

I got one too. Reiterates the main points in the last two, but I'll post it here for posterity's sake.

Thanks for the offer for a place to stay while I'm on the way to out check out the Gold Mine Hotel. We'll see what works out along the way.

I don't know anymore about the phone message from Randall than you do, except for the fact that I have checked with a couple of sources back in NYC who confirm for me that there was indeed a fire at the Tomorrow's Talk Studio offices and that Randall died in the fire. I have to admit that I feel terrible about his death and somewhat responsible. I'm afraid they killed him because of my phone call to him earlier that day. That's one of the reasons that I am so hesitant to involve anyone else, like yourself. I can't believe Ed would have done it though, as it doesn't make any sense to me. I think he is more interested in exposing the bad things that Tomorrow's Talk has done than just extracting revenge on them, but you never know.

I got one from him too. It's kinda cool that he's responding to each of these mails as if they are the only ones he has got - they aren't cut 'n paste jobs. Anyway - looks like since the first mail, he's been in touch with Jaimie as he seems to have a definite location for meeting.

This is what I got, again, for posterity.

Thanks a lot for your e-mail. It's good to know that there are people over in the UK willing to help otu if necessary. I can promise you I am being very careful with every move I make now. I wanted to let you know that I should be in Nevada by tomorrow and have made plans to meet with Jaimie from the Dread House site there, before heading down to Gold Hill in the next few days to check out the Gold Mine Hotel. I'm convinced there's a connection to everything that's happened and this hotel based on the images that were found in those sound files I recorded at the Cambridge Mental Hospital.

By the by, this was in response to an e-mail I sent with the subject line "Education". The response was RE:[SPAM] Education. Did anyone else get the "spam" tag in theirs?

Thanks a lot for your offer for a place to stay if this crazy trip I'm on takes me anywhere near Glasgow. Even if it doesn't, maybe when this is all done I'll head over there for some r & r. Any webmaster jobs open over there? Smile

Thanks for the information about Cambridge Mental Hospital and the e-mail address for Charles. I definitely will be getting a hold of him very soon and maybe he can help me see if there's anything left to find there since I didn't have much luck on my own.

I'm still on the move and should be in Nevada by tomorrow, where I am planning to meet up with Jaimie from the Dread House site. After that we are heading down to Gold Hill to check out this Gold Mine Hotel. There seems to be some connection between it and the Cambridge Mental Hospital that I don't quite understand.

Well, at least he adressed my by name. It's a start, but I'm really hoping for more personal interaction.

If it's any comfort, I probably have something to do with it as well. I was the one who told him that we needed information in order to help him in his search for you, and he, in turn, went looking for that information.

I recieved an e-mail from him saying that I wouldn't believe what he had found, and that he would be contacting me soon with that information.

Looks like we're in this thing deeper than we all could have imagined. All we can do now is ensure that we survive.

I wish you the best of luck, please don't hesitate to ask if you need anything. I have a feeling they know that I know as well, especially considering the amount of e-mail I sent to the studio. At this point, I'm more than willing to take risks to ensure that TT goes down.

Best,

-T

Okay, here is my submission, including the original email sent to him. It would be so kewl if he really did stop by Las Vegas:

Ron,
I've had contact with "Ed". He's worried that you might be heading
into trouble. There is a design in the bathroom tile at the Goldmine
Hotel that looks just like a button on a picture of one of the mental
hospital doctors....there is some sort of secret society working here
with sound levels of 40 hz. This sound can drive people into a waking
dream state and make them crazy, even turn them homicidal. You are in
danger at the hotel - it is built above mine shafts that may also
transmit the same sound level.

Here is a copy of the email I sent Ed:

He couldn't offer up any more information beyond what I have already
surmised, but did ask you to contact him
(webmasterSPLATurbanmythology.net) if you had any further questions. Oh,
he claims he doesn't know the password on the third disc.

Remember, if you need a place to crash while in Nevada, I'm down in Las Vegas.

As a next place to visit in your travels, you may want to head back to
Michigan. Somewhere (we don't have a city yet) is William Staufford.
He apparently survived the van crash that killed so many crew from
House of Dread. We're pretty sure he is alive and living there -
because he is a test subject for a company called Dream Projector, and
has been dreaming about the tv show and aftermath. Here are the links
to his two dreams: the first one in 6/2003:
http://www.dreamprojector.com/td2003_00353.htm, and the latest one,
7/2004: http://www.dreamprojector.com/td2004_00077.htm

Good luck, and stay safe.

hugs

I promise I'll be very careful while checking out the Gold Mine Hotel, but I don't see any choice but to actually go there and check things out. If I can get in to it that is. It isn't even open yet and undergoing serious reconstruction from what I can tell, so I may have to try and come up with some convincing story to get in there. Maybe Jaimie from the Dread House site will have some ideas along those lines.

I too am trying to track down William Stauffer. I wonder if Ed knows anything about his family or anything from working with him at Tomorrow's Talk?
