Clue #123 - Fragment Code "5XW3O" & RoT Chatter
There's new chatter over at the Retreivers of Truth site. Log in using "Steinbeck" to view the newest conversation. Apparently they've gotten their hands on some chocolate of their own. Let us know if you discover anything else.
Looking at the hansoexposed.com statistics, we see that there is still another glyph that has been released but hasn't been found by anyone yet. Let the hunting commence!
Thanks to goingdark!, bigdog7879, Donn, The Lost Bird, NobleLawyer, and griffin-x, for giving us the heads up on this!

I hate being in the Top Ten! LOL
Just chatted with TeamLena. They're getting ready to release their first podcast parody on Tuesday at www.djlena.com. Should be a good diversion.
so...anyone got any ideas about the ROT chatter? They clearly mention Verizon. Not sure if they have doen that often in previous chatter.
Diggity: I think the most interesting thing is when BBB says: "Guys, all I'm at liberty to say is that the end of our Hanso tutelage is near."
And, of course, they get a delivered Apollo bar!
Darnit, Belly: You beat me to it!
Wanted to get this reminder up at the beginning. Repost from last thread.
RE Apollo bars: Many of you generous souls have mentioned you have extra bars to give away but only a handful have acutally signed up with MissMegs.
She's given me the priveledge of taking the information of the people who have bars *to share*. If you previously e-mailed MissMegs with your information you do not need to e-mail me. If you haven't you can e-mail me directly at twinklestarmom@yahoo.com and send me this information:
Your name
Your "handle" (the screen name you want me to use on here)
Your location
How many bars you have/are sharing
**Whether you want your bar(s) returned to you or not**
You can see the list of people who really want to see an Apollo bar in person on MissMegs blog:
http://apollotrade.blogspot.com/
Thanks! Bless you for sharing!
Maven your back, Gosh imissed you. Hopefully I will catch you on chat later.
So anyone want to summarize what the ROT's are talking about? Sorry for being a mooch. I just don't want to have to check another site and so never got into the ROT thing.
Reminder: Verizon has a phone to sell named... CHOCOLATE!
anyone notice that they metioned conspiracy and SPIES!!

I ripped it apart (flash). The below link is to the still image embedded inside the flash. It looks like a glyph to me (zoom in or maybe OUT depending on monitor size), note the series of darker small pics around the large pic perimeter like a glyph.
Has this been discussed? Is this old news?

enlarge the pic and look closely.....
Does anyone know if this is old news, so I don't pursue a path already worn out :)
heythin here is a black and white copy you can see the glyph much better...http://www.flickr.com/photos/41775561@N00/229663435/
looks like a dollar sign
enlargement of part of pic....what can you make out?

2costa, gotcha, yes
I'm dyeing my hair.
This has nothing to do with TLE, but I thought I'd make an appearance on this comment list.
Also, I've turned in my copyright for TPTM (The People That Matter). It's up for free use now. You may keep your dollars (both of them). :)
WHATS UP!!! Hey, cool...New post for ROT chatter that doesn't really get us anywhere...AWESOME...
Just kidding guys...Nothing going on but what gets me is that I might have to sign-up @ missmegs blog cause they cancelled 3 events in LA...Chicago I feel your pain. Just saying hi...

(three-zero...)
or some combination of these characters
thanks Joel
LOL, I was right, justa day late :(
HI KMANN!!!
More and more lurkers have been popping their heads into the comments. It's nice to hear. I think we can get tired of the lack of new people just as we all get tired by the lack of new clues/glyphs.
Lurkers everywhere, SPEAK OUT! REJOICE!
I'm still dyeing my hair, btw. I know everyone wanted to know that. I feel your curiosity about my beauty regimine.
WHERE'S THAT DAMN SARCASM FONT WHEN I NEED IT?
I've seen a dozen of those new Verizon chocolate phones. Swear to God that every freshman at SAIC has one.
I'm fine with my old (by cell phone standards) samsung.
(but it is really pretty.... hmmm, wonder what kind of discount I could get with a plan renewal)
Hey, look at that! It's time to drink some Sprite!
holatabelly
hol-lat-a-belly.
the fumes are getting to me.
Bluemime, can you enlarge more of those pics? Some look like they might be interesting
The Island
Yes, Most interesting...especially the two of the Doctor's (Vik Institute) - EAR (far left side 1/3 - 1/2 way down pic) My Blog has more ear details.
I decided not to post a huge blow up though, most folks have image viewing software that allows local computer blow ups. The full color unaltered pic is here.

I am back after a week, what did I miss?
Thanks for the whole pic bluemime, It's better than my screen capture. I looked on your blog, but didn't see where those pictures were at.
What kind of software do I need to get to blow up the images?
the island
I use ACDSee and Paintshop.....but any will do, and some are freeware. Download.com use to have tons of shareware titles.
After that ROT chatted I can see the end of this game beinf like the end of starwars a new hope with the rebel forces blowing uo the hanso deathstar, then TLE2 hanso has bounced back and they have a half built deathstar over endor

New Ninja post
Anyone here?
Morning all,
what does PFT stand for in the RoT post?
Hi oodles,
Mmmn PFT...
not sure to be honest
That's the problem with the net and with txt speak there are so many acronyms that someone is just making a silly noise and we all sit there trying to work out what it means.
lol cu DA :p
I have a lot of catching up to do...
pharma, could you email me please?
wv: fluzka
Early....
I'm eating my lunch, I've been up since 6am :)
Mmmn I know - I got hungry
I've eaten my lunch though so I probably wont have anything else until tonight.
Well apart from Work Coffee... Yeuch
2 more glyphs released...
Details ?
Sydney,
Mmmn a bit far from me....
2 hours to Heathrow
8 hours going through security
18 hours to Sidney
maybe not
Isn't it time we had a real life glyph in the UK?
here here dark angel!!
Think I'd gladly drive to London to find it!
Yeah that would be pretty cool
UK lost fans could descend on the capital for a glyph hunt
I wouldn't be distracted by all the bars....
Well not for long
Maybe they should take a very British stint on this and stick a glyph on one of those free cards you get in PG Tips! or maybe post one in the window of the Queen Vic, The Wool Pack or the Rovers Return!
Better get back to work....
I saw this WhereisRachel Apollo bar posted yesterday, but I can't remember where. I had assumed it was a joke and that someone had done a clever photosop job but maybe I was wrong.
Lucy, can you not get one up there? I managed to get a friend in coventry to get one, and I got one in southampton on sunday! Don't think I need 2!!!
well,if you want me to send one to a work address or summit!!!
I know what you mean Lucy everything in the UK is very London based.
Mind you Battersea Power Station would be the obvious location for a glyph as it was in Charlies flashback.
My nearest Forbidden Planet store is in Croydon and my wife was not to impressed when I suggested driving there to get an Apollo bar.
I was in Cardiff last weekend but the Forbidden Planet store there has closed :(
well dark, as I said, I have one spare - if either of you want it, let me know...
Thanks inenglandandlost
I think Lucy should have it - I am meant to have given up chocolate (a 20 year addiction is at an end!)
No, I know better than to pick a fight with a Barnsley girl!
HA HA HA HA HA!!! ain't that the truth!!!
"Berkshire" aka "West Berkshire" aka "The Royal County" aka "The posh end innit".
No offence meant at all, I have friends in Barsley and my sister used to work there!
Lucy what happened to your photo?
Noooo - it's daaan saaaf. it's actually a chavvy town in the middle! you've probably heard of Reading! that's one town about 30 mins from me, windsor is about 45 mins away
Kent lovely, well I guess some of it is, just as long as you avoid the Ilse of Sheppy (think Grimesthorpe surrounded by water) and parts of the Medway Towns.
a lot of people thing I'm from Kent! Well I hear them mutter the word when I walk past!
Ah Kents not that bad I moved here 10 years ago, before that I lived in Swansea, Aberdeen, Perth (Scotland), The Shetland Ilse, The Netherlands and Dorset.
man - I feel sorry for the guys in the states - this must be the dullest conversation ever. talking about counties!?
I really should be working! But get to use this time as "creative time"
Well at least we are not talking about the weather!
Anyway I really must go as a massive pile of files has appeared on my desk and I really should do some work...
D'oh
see you guys later
Did you want me to send up the bar then Lucy?
here til about 6
well, one will be in aus! but not sure where the other is!
where are the clues?
well, I'm actually going to go and do some work today, since I've been here 4 hours and done bugger all... Good luck with the hunt all - will be back on in a bit!
smokey: loved your comment the other day about not being a guy and the four things running around your house calling you "mom!"
UK players: Not a boring conversation at all! Why shouldn't you use this space to connect like everyone else?

well dark, as I said, I have one spare - if either of you want it, let me know...
MissMegs has several names from the UK and Europe who'd like bars. If you're willing to share, you could check out her blog: apollotrade.blogspot.com. I'm taking the names of people who have bars to share. We'll get you hooked up with someone in your area to send it to. :-)
What about this piece?
BroadBandBeatnik
11:06am Why don't you take a tour and instead of reading into things, listen for a change.
Looking on the richerdeeperbroader site for a tour.... listen instead of read...
Oh.. and Good Morning everyone... 9:30AM EST here
ok..well I guess I am late on that.. just found the vaccine thing by clicking the microphone on the movie sight... back to hunting....
Are they still passing out bars at the Forbidden Planet stores in the UK? Apollocandy.com sounds like they are but I couldn't tell if they just forgot to take down old information.
Morning all! Time to get caught up.
Smokey: Ewwww! Stay safe today!
I have a feeling I'll be looking all over RDB and then AFTER I've scoured the place, they'll place the glyph there.....AAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCKKKKKK!
Can you tell it's happened to me before?
morning all... I agree something in the new ROT post must be a clue... Probably one of the phrases in all caps is my guess. Though they did misspell "hoarding" at the end, not sure if it means anything...
Hi Lucy
Yes I am back as well, checking out what is going on whilst trawling through the work on my desk.
I think "It's not over til it's over" is a pretty common statement, so pretty hard to pin it down to an individual
Morning TLEC!! I hope we find what we are looking for!! Just checking in to say morning and then read the comments. But I think from the little bit I have read we are on the right track...but yo unever know.
Hiya Lucy
Yeah I know what you mean - I'll probably have a crack at it if it is still unsolved tonight. It looks a bit suspicious though if I sit here at work with loads of web pages open!
Hi Thrasher
2 new glyphs but no real clues yet.
Do we have any Aussies here yet or is it still the middle of the night down there?
Or is SPIES mean to point us towards DJDan ?
Hey I went to a friends wedding in Barnsley - It's not that bad. Mind you in Yorkshire it would be Whippets of Truth ;P
after reading the RoT post several times, i don't see anything there except that they got a package of chocolate from RB. i presume this is apollo candy, but i guess it could be a LG chocolate phone. The capitalization on the SPIES, i think, is just for emphasis. The "WHAT'S IN THE BOX" is just a reference to the last scene of "se7en".
my opinion anyway.
o.k. what does PFT stand for.
Also anyone have the latest National Geographic - they won't sent to New Orleans still.
I thought the all cap SPIES was referring to beatnik
noble, yes, i think SPIES is just yelling at BBB. i, personally, don't think that is a password or clue, just yelling.
noble, i've seen PFT before as just a way of typing a sound although usually it has more f's. given the context, i think it makes sense.
ok... can you peep stop typing so I can catch up??? :-P
I've updated my blog with my report of attaining my Apollo and premature glyph hunting
http://lavendah1.blogspot.com/
I have been checking out the National Geographic site, avoiding the crap on my desk but I can't find anything there.
i thought it was some IM slang/shorthand just had not seen it. I have seen it as a sound, but with more F's.
I used to get National Geographic but they wouldn't let any magazine be delievered to NOLA after Katrina, and they wouldn't just hold my subscription so I missed like 4 mths. which they wouldn't credit even though it was not my fault it was not allowed to be mailed so my subscription ran out. I'm still bitter about it so have not renewed my subscription.
Maybe an add in the magazine?
Come on! this game is made up of smart geeks! I am sure that several of ya'll have a subscription to National Geographic!
where Paw? what is it?
glyph found by JohnsHatch, do we know details?
paw. you are a tease.
GOOD MORNING TLEC!!!
Alright JohnsHatch...Caugh it up buddy...
Just catching up and saying what's up to all...
pfffffttt
PFT - Pulmonary Function Test
- Philadelphia Federation of Teachers
Um ok maybe not
Good Morning All, looks like we are on the gylph trail again.

Asking for seasons tickets to the Jets indicates to me that they are in NY. For whatever it's worth. I was looking for NY wia.com posts...
I was wondering about that reference, too.
All I could think of was that billboard in Times Square for Verizon's Chocolate phone. I doubt that it is related. I was just staring at it for too long on that Times Square glyph day. Lol.
I get a discount on Jets tix. I would gladly pass that along to the ROT if they would give me a gylph or a golden oracle!!

that the code
WOW. Interesting frag.
Rachel's running, fast... someone yells "She's got a camera", she yells "NO GET OFF ME!! GET OFF ME NO!!!
transcript please?
I've currently placed this at the end, but I'm pretty sure it can't be. Something must explain how Rachel got away and into hiding.
bet that one's in the middle somewhere, then....
I guess they can't keep the hold thing on hold just beacuse they're one bar short
I just posted it. Glad I was the first to post a clue here even if I got it from a YM chat :Dd
wow, guess we found out how this video ends...
No dog mauling her. Someone definitely says, "I've got her!" just as she falls to the ground.
ITE = In the Experience, speaker's blog
dazz: a dog? perhaps polar friggin bears, man!
Rachel Blake = Dog Food
Dog eats Tape
Dog becomes retriever of the truth
my god I can't believe I just typed that.
I'm working too hard....
OMG - What's happened to Rachel?
So serious mode
If they caught her how did she get the tape out
Did she escape?
Was the video being streamed to an acomplice whilst it was filmed?
Did Hanso release it - are they playing us for suckers?
Hi Emma
I think the problem that you have is that a lot of the sites change within the time frame of the game. It is possible however that someone has mirrored it.
http://blogs.abc.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/hotel_1.jpg
hotel where glyph found
I had forgotten about Comicon - so how did she escape? Maybe she had another handy stream iron
Take that Mittleverk, 'SMACK'
LOL dazzed!!!!!!!!!!
dazzedelf - I think you've cracked it!!! That's it, we can all leave now!! The experience is officially OVER!!! ha ha ha ha
Thank NOBLE!!!
WTF...This is amazing...Something new...Obviously she made it out safely because she is still communicationg to us with all this apollo stuff...OR MAYBE NOT!!! She got captured and we are getting scammed to eat the poisonous candy..
Ah yes Chocolate - its toxic to dogs thats why you have to give them special doggie chocs (which taste like cack)
Dazzedelf said...
Hey Dharmachick, shouldn't you save those tickets for He-Man?
8/31/2006 09:36:22 AM
LOL!! He-Man doesn't need tickets. :)
KingdoK said...
we know she escaped because this was filmed before she was at ComicCon
8/31/2006 09:46:54 AM
Exactly! I hope that they don't forget that little detail.
Sorry eros_uk, they haven't given any info as to how long the site will be available.
Great to wakeup to 2 new glyphs!
Thanks, Noble, for the posting of the glyph. At least it's easy to place.
Maybe it wasn't Rachel at Comicon maybe it was her Bad Twin!

So glad I haven't eaten mine!!!
we think so anyway...... some have postulated that this may not go at the end, but I think it does. That would stick with RG's MO, posting some strange cliffhanger at the end,
I bet we dont' find out how she got away until we get enough pics and golden oracles.
*RB's MO
this of course raises the believability issue of this phase again... If she was caught (at least in sight if not physically) while recording the video, wouldn't TWM be pursuing her relentlessly? It doesn't seem like she should have the luxury of all the time it's taken to get these clips out...
this latest glyph reminds me of the flower of life thing we were all discussing a couple phases back.
this just keeps getting better and better
That was freakin' awesome! I'd gotten so used to little Beardy monotone clips that my heart jumped when I heard Rachel screaming.
And yes, I know she gets out ok, but I was a little worried for a sec.
I'm really happy to have another Rachel video, even for a few seconds!
Now THIS is a good twist!
eros_uk, there's a link to a mirror Hanso site on the home page of TLEC. On the right and scroll down. Hope this helps.
wv: funqu (amusing martial arts?)
eros_uk,
I am planning on leaving this site "as is" once TLE is over as a sort of "time capsule" to our adventures.
FYI to everyone else:
I'm also working on a plan to give this community a place to continue to build friendships around LOST in a similiar way even after the Experience is over.
None of this is in stone...
My guess is that Mel0drama brings in his band of IT ninjas (from ROT of course, as I think that Mel0drama/Iron Man/BeatBoxMixer are all one in the same) and they get her out of there.
dazzedelf -- oh, ok. Yeah, I forgot about that. He really needs to lay off that stuff. I will get the tix to him. ;)
I hope we get another couple of clips around this event. If TWM almost recognized her when she was in "disguise" in Copenhagen, surely he will know who she is without that wig/glasses.
To me it looked like they were in a temporary facility as Rachel was hiding behind piles of boxes.
alright, I have got to stop compulsively F5ing and get some work done. Will check back later
admin, are you going to lock everything down once we're done with tle. that way no one can post comments at the end of threads.
Wow - how sad will that be! Long live T-LEC.
Finally! A good clip! I have to admit, I was excited there was no Mr. Beardy or TWM. I wonder how they found her? Is anyone else wondering how they're going to resolve this, the rest of the dharma video and the rest of TWM's speech in 10-12 clips?
It would be a shame to lose TLEC - this is truely one on the nicest places on the net and I've been around a bit (I was online pre-WWW).
It is so great to have such a tolerant friendly, flame free community.
Long Live TLEC
LMAO -- obviously I meant BroadbandBeatnik... lol. That does it, I need to give in and have some coffee!!
Like Hanso...
Maybe the guy in the video who was concerned about killing innocent people helped her.
maybe the new blog can be TLC, The Lost Community. Sounds all warm and friendly, right?
maybe TWM blackmailed Rachel into spreading the Virus through Apollo bars...
lol, lucybob you are posting in it right now!
Right on David...I'm sure with all the supporters here we can all help in any way to keep this place/your place still running...Thanks so much man.
Hi Lucy
How was Barnsley High Street?
TLEC is us "The Lost Experience Clues"
We were just wondering about what will happen to this blog once the Experience is over.
I agree RyanDrumz
I'm happy to give David any help - TLEc helps me keep my sanity at work.
We've been given "Rachel in peril" clips before (remember the long drawn out, multi-part video in Paris?) She'll be rescued or escape somehow.
The only problem with her getting away is that TWM should be very worried about her (especially if she had a camera with her) and should be activey persuing her to get that footage. Unless, he's under such time pressure with the virus thing and the need to keep to a schedule to keep his plans in motion. Maybe he thinks whatever she got on film won't matter because the ball is already in motion and he can't be stopped.
WV: awaybur
Lucy chill....
nothing is happening were just considering the TLEC life extension project ;)
lucy: this arg ends sometime, right. at least in theory this blog is to discuss the game and the clues therein.
TLEC LEP All the way!!!
Too funny Dark Angel...LOL
Hey, David: We knew we could count on you to work on keeping this great community together in the future. We'll give you any help you need.
I hope we find out before the 23rd October if these bars are safe to eat!
HA HA!
n.i.k.: I think I'd go with the bad writing theory. In reality, would any of this be playing out this way? LOL There are gigantic holes in many area of this plot, and many screw-ups. I'm just going with the flow...
I think its safe to say their safe to eat!
- trust me I work in the commercial claims department of an insurance company - I've dealt with a few food poisoning claims in my time - very expensive.
Oh bugger - I've reavealed what I do.... I'm not evil, honest, really I'm not - hey Mr Incredible worked in Insurance Claims and he was good wasn't he.....

HA HA!
I would like to know now -- I had a chunk of one of the bars last night!!
Maven, N,I,K, .... True, this is not exactly high level espionage. More like The Brady Bunch on a James Bond adventure! But I'm likin' it. :-)
Thinblue ... thanks for the reference to your blog on Ellroy last night, that was interesting.
Maybe Rachel infiltrated Apollo as a quality control person.
"Hey you guys take a break I'll cover the conveyer belt..."
Of course she could have faked the bars - it's easy enough to get custom bars made up - ABC did it for this ARG
lostinspace: i've posted this in a previous comments section, but keep in mind that the molds used for this are large, heavy, costly and take a long time to make by a skilled craftsmen.
I apologize if this was already mentioned...but the Viceroy event in Santa Monica is back on the Apollo list...although still no Santa Monica Pier.
Also...they've added the Burning Man in NV!
Personally, I think all the "holes" in the story are just that. With all the errors in the Apollo bar distribution, it's obvious they are just flying by the seat of their pants with this game. Oh well, it's fun anyway.
I have to say Hershey Bars taste terrible, you guys have really bad chocolate over there.
I like our British chocolate - mind you the European Union thought about reclassifying it as it did not have a high enough percentage of cocoa solids.
Now Belgian and German chocolate is really good
sorry I'll sut up now
(can you tell I'm a recovering chocoholic!)
Hi again,
what sticks out for at RoT is
"threaten to kick me off the board I programmed" with the "I" in italics so it looks like a forward slash indicated a sub-directory /programmed somwewhere. But could be nothing.
what about the pirates of the caribbean black pearl. its a long shot, but its a possibility.
This Apollo Candy bar phase sure raises a lot of questions as to the actual making and distribution of the candy. There are a zillion holes in this part of the storyline, but, as uaual, we have to accept the facts given us and get on with it. In reality, even candy-making most likely cannot be sabotaged...there are strict standards in any food making and distribution. Making candybars, packaging them and distributing them is a costly endeavor (even Rachel's severence pay from Widmore won't cover that!).
Rachel using the candybars to somehow continue to get the word out about TWM and THF is something we just have to accept. None of this makes any sense in the real world.
and whats the orient hotel?
Hey guys
I've been online for almost 8.5 hours now and it's time to go home and see the wife an kids.
I'll be back later tonight (GMT+1)
Namaste
Oxillini (and all),
I'm not planning on locking this TLEC blog down at all. I just probably won't continue to add new threads. Typically, once a new "clue" is added, nobody comments on old threads. I expect that once TLE is over, our interests (at least in America) will shift to Season 3. I figure it would be fun to leave this blog as a remnent of our Experiences with TLE and then start a new one (almost exactly like TLEC) for more general LOST discussion.
Here is the preliminary idea for the new blog:
1. Post a thread for each episode as they air in the US maybe with a list of possible discussion points (and post lag alleviation as necessary)
2. Post a thread for each episode as they air in the UK and as they air in AUS. That way, US viewers can go back and re-discuss episodes with international friends and fans as they air. (The only problem is that UK & AUS fans will have to wait unless they can get Season 3 on itunes or online somewhere)
It would be pretty simple just like TLEC. My guess/hope is that discussions will be all over the map and that many references will be made to boards and there will be lots of linking etc. Mostly, I hope that friendships will continue to develop through these "water cooler" discussions. I am in agreement with many of you that the community is one of the best parts of TLE and that it is really worth attempting to preserve.
Not sure about a name, URL, artwork, etc...
Lisa: I see that the Viceroy venue is on the list, but there's a blue "splat" on the site that apologises for the cancellation of their Santa Monica giveaways. Would they be referring to the Santa Monica Pier venue, and the Viceroy Hotel/Acura event on the 16th is really still on?
I've emailed kabc7 asking this, but haven't heard back yet. Who else can we ask?
eros_uk,

I'd love to help you as best I can.
I'm a little confused, can a kind TLEC-er help? We had two glyphs released this morning. The one on Speaker's blog...was that the one in Australia that Ninja was giving hints to or is that another one?
Thanks for your help.
David: That's the way I thought it would be done. The only thing that worries me is that you know how we all are: As soon as a new post is put up, we all go there and never go back to old ones. I truly hope that when the UK/AUS people see an episode the US has seen weeks ago, that they are not the only ones posting comments.
I'm hoping that since the nature of LOST does rely on a continuing story and previous episodes relate to current ones, that the insights of new eyes and minds commenting on episodes long since seen in the US will only contribute to great discussions.
david, youll at least wait until TLE is over, right?
Sean,
TLEC will remain until TLE is over...
I think I'll try to have the new blog (Yes, it will be on blogger so everyone can keep their usernames, avatars, etc) up by the time Season 3 starts in the U.S. Right now it's all in my head...embryonic phase of thinking...we'll see what happens.
One thing I'm pretty sure I WON'T do is a Lost Podcast. There are enough of those out there. JayandJack, LostCasts, and Official Podcasts already get that job done.
Maven: Oh, I didn't even notice that comment about Santa Monica! Well, I know for sure that the Acura event is going on but whether or not they will be distributing candy bars is up for dispute. I think we'll show up anyway, good excuse for a night out without the kidlets. AND we have VIP passes, and Luke Walton will be there (big Lakers fans!!) We'll just hope for the best as far as the candy bars go.
thanks david. it is a food idea.
i meant good idea. not food idea.
i must be hungry.
lostinspace: my assumption with regards to the plane being brought down by the magnetic field was that the control electronics were interfered with by the magnetic field pulse. i know it couldn't be literally pulled out of the sky.
what are you saying about twa's detectors not picking up stainless?
oh, and **spoiler** to my previous post. has everyone seen the finale yet?
bpfinn,
that's an old one. sorry

May God keep him safe and bring him to you quickly. Got to love a man who's homesick for his family. And I ask God to protect all of you who are being affected by Ernesto.
Helloooooo....anyone? A little clarification? Please and thank you.

Fasten: I believe it was on a hotel in Australia via Ninja's blog. There's still one unfound.
David - I am in for keeping up with this blog or the "new" one if you think you will still need me. It has been one of the most fulfilling things I have done this year. We TPTM are indeed a great community!!
