Well, guys, I don't have any ingenious solves for you... this is about the time when I gape in awe.
you guys rock!
This ARG surprises me more and more each day by the amount of planning going into it... I wonder who this scientist is who created them, and if he's still alive today...

I'm rapidly getting nowhere with the einstein number (ugh, it's like the perplex city postcard number all over again), but while I'm pulling my hair out can anyone see any reason why the title of the gainsay page is 'Judy' ?
Oh, and Kender - you're way too fast

I don't know hwo to use Irc, but for anyone who cares, The toplines digits add up to 8
1+9+6+2=1+7=8
Same with the middle line
2+0+5 | 4+0+3 | 4+9+6|...
Do that with the whole line and you get
7 7 1 9 9 2 5 7 1 3 4 3 5 9 9 3 5 2 7
So add all that up
7+7+1+9+9+2+5...
That gets you 8
Now the third line
2+0+5 | 1
7+1
8 AGAIN!
I'm absolutly clueless where to go from there tho...I've tried the eigth book of both testaments, there's only one chapter of Jude, I've even tried eight and 8 in the addy bar, Nada
Tj-
edit- I'm posting here because Irc doesn't seem to want to let me use it

I've spent over and hour playing with the numbers but nothing I try seems to work. Anyone have anything we can work on, other than the 8 thing?

The Numbers CHanged!!
Earlier today it said

1962
205 412 506 90 315 281 185 61 127 111 13 57 149 54 189 219 32 74 43 205 1 128 52 125 198 463 183
and now its

1962
205 403 496 90 315 281 185 61 127 111 13 57 149 54 189 219 32 74 43 205 1
I added up the groupings (2+0+5=7) for what it use to be and got the following
Quote:
18
7 7 11 9 9 11 14 7 10 3 4 12 14
9 18 12 5 11 7 7 1 11 7 8 18 13
12
and for the 2nd set its
Quote:
18
7 7 19 9 9 11 14 7 10 3 4 12 14
9 18 12 5 11 7 7 1
does that help anyone?

hehe about the numbers. well spotted. but ... O M G
found the source of the stained glass windows. West Point Acadmey chapel
http://www.west-point.org/wp/wallpaper/chapel.html.
it was the american spelling of honor that tipped me off
Duty, honor, country is their motto.
also a search for 1962 and west point, brings up pages to do with MacArthurs "Duty, honor, country" speech where he mentions "of ultimate conflict between a united human race and the sinister forces of some other planetary galaxy"

12
you missed a number in the first group llew between the 7 and the 3 from the second set there should be a 10 from 127, could you edit it? It may be important since that would make the 2 middle rows equal length.
(edit- thanks)

With the technique that I was useing you keep going until you get down to one digit
So Section one woud actually be
Quote:
9
7 7 2 9 9 2 5 7 1 3 4 3 5
9 9 3 5 2 7 7 1 2 7 8 9 4
3
And second set
Quote:
9
7 7 1 9 9 2 5 7 1 3 4 3 5
9 9 3 5 2 7 7 1
The changes are all bolded

1962 was also the year Einstein's theory of relativity was verified using two clocks, one at a higher altitude than the other.
I haven't been able to get the numbers to fit in anything clock-related, however.
