well, i dont know what to think at the moment..
it could be that the MIB or brigid or whoever is there too.
but what is more important is that we know that jon has read the book of star. in which he found a way to defeat the MIB. so i dont think we have to be too concerned about jon's wellbeing on the isle their...if there is any place on the world to defeat the MIB it is there!

A lot of things happened in the last 48 hours, great. Too bad I was busy doing other things... Sad
So... any British friend out there willing to have a closer look to the Peel Castle this weekend? Wink

isle of man is quite hard to get to:
obviously you need to get on a ferry / plane etc
i would go if it was closer and i only had to drive!

that last word is driving me crazy. why use defiantly? it would make more sense as definitely. and why the space between every and thing everything is a word isn't it?


Don't worry about defiantly - Jon uses that word often. Check his e-mails.

Bye the way: Great progress!

On the other hand: does anyone know the latin word for defiantly? I could not find it in online dictionaries, and I only have an Latin - Dutch one and not an Dutch - Latin one myself... Maybe that could be a new password for the cache.

so

so we have two facts:
1. he found the solution on the aleph/star question
2. he knows they are there. they are most likely the asses from S&S (S&Sses)

and we get a clue: most like the word "defiantly" but maybe there's more in the message.

is there someting special about the message?

special/strange.....

thanks for every thing i am well hidden

a space between everything, and no comma after thing

(as in: thanks for everything, i am well hidden)

options

i think it means either one of these:
1. thanks for everything, i am well hidden
2. thanks for all the preparations i've made, i am well hidden
3. another riddle (probably)

and he says he'll contact us, but i'm pretty sure we'll have to do something for that to happen.

and..

also,
if they caught him before he reached the aleph/star,
then he would know they are there,
and only think he knows where the aleph/star is because he didn't actualy varify that.

yes, but they couldn't have caught him or he wouldn't still be well hidden.

I still think there is morse code message in the text. I don't have time, but isn't there a way to translate where the "i" are dots and the "t" is dash in morse code? Would the colon be a "stop"

I think the first letter is "D" t.. = -.. =d

I'll work as soon as I have time.

what i find strange is that he is hiding (we assume) on Peel castle.
he knows there once was the round table of arthur, with the aleph and the star. obviously now the table isnt there anymore. it is a ruin.
could it be that the table still exists? in a museum? where?

why would he sent us a clue that we need to find out where the aleph and the star are, and that he is allmost sitting on top of it. (couple centuries difference), but in the text msgs states:

i THINK i know where the aleph meets the star.......

that gets me thinking... who will help think along?

thus: he knows where the aleph and the star meet (peel castle) but is is not sure about it. that isnt correct......

i dont wanna be offensive, but:

what makes you think that jon is at peel castle?

he said "i need to know where the aleph meets the star"

he did NOT say " i am where the aleph meets the star"

if he was at peel castle, why would he have to ask?

iŽd rather say we WANT him to be in peel castle, just to have a solve...

personally, i think jon needs to know of that place because it is important for him to defeat the mib.

we do not know where jon is!

as for the "defiantly" that's been a tradmark of jon from the start. he has always been defiant against the man in black. it's his way of signing of, a play on sincerely at the end of letters. this has come up in previous emails and on his website hwau. don't think it means anything more, but that, as ever, is just my 2 cents
