More About "Nanite" (Mel0Drama & Dr. Hackett Re-Visited)
If you go to sublymonal.com and enter "nanite" as the code, you will get an audio message about flickr that defines what the site is. Also you'll see flashing in the sublymonal screens, a glyph with the frag clue "nanite" on it. So...if you go to flickr.com and search for "nanite" you see a picture of that glyph in gray. Click the image and it shows up larger with a message underneath saying "Search People: lehcarekalb" (which is "rachel" and "blake" backwards) Searching for that Flickr Member name and going to the photos, you see the nanite glyph again and a number of pics with torn up pieces of paper in them. When you piece them together you (roughly) get:
CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM
TO: Dr. Hackett
Apollo Candy
FROM: G. Downs
Engineering Development Center
Atlanta, GA
Date: July 21, 2004
RE: Test Study
Dr. Hackett,
Initial research shows release of the psychotropic compound to be
a success. The acid and flavoring agents of the beverage disguise the
taste. More tests are necessary to reach optimum viral spread. My superiors are eager for you to join our effort, once you have extricated
yourself from your current situationn.

"starting wars so you don't have to."
spreading diseases so you don't have to?
I'm glad that the MelODrama stuff finally came back around. Today has been one of the better ones in the last few weeks!
yay top ten and a shout out for my email! :)
well it's past my bedtime, so I'll catch you all tomorrow and will def check out the new podcast then (at work of course! shhh..)
dante, I agree. bellyOfdesire mentioned in the previous comments thread that it would be impossible to both A) anticipate the sublymonal/nanite/flickr connection and B) somehow forge that connection (unless you hacked sublymonal and/or wikipedia). It must be legit.
I didn't want to buy it at first but now I think we must...Very interesting.
WOW.
that about sums all of this up.
WOW.

Does anything strike any ideas?
I dont remember if anyone else ate one, but DO KEEP IN MIND the letter says BEVERAGE not candy bar.
what episode was that? Anyone happen to know?
ohoh, glad I didnt say anything!! LOL
I forget about that!
October is the season premere here, from what I have been told....
Cant wait! My Sawyer BETTER be OK, or someones getting hurt LOL
Man, I feel stupid LOL I never even thought about that!!! NOW I get it LOL.
Well buds, I think I am getting beyond tired....should go night night.
Thanks for chatting though!! I miss everyone so much!
I still have to deside what question(s) to send DJDAN...gotta be GOOD!
Morning all!
I was thinking... What if the Hanso Foundation is not only trying to save humanity from Armageddon, but they also don't want to wait for it? What if these psychotropic substances can induce violent behavior in the persons who eat the chocolate, making them more agressive and predisposed to war?
Taken from Lostpedia:
Mel0Drama: I work in the archive of the Engineering Development Center. It was a punishment. I asked Hackett too many questions. But he never could have guessed... the ARCHIVE was the last place he should have sent me to work. I have the proof. The DOCUMENTS are all there. Sealed in a vault. Untouched by human hands. Ready to convict. And, I need you to help me expose them.
Me: So, why don't you just post your evidence here and get done with it?
Mel0Drama: BECAUSE NOBODY BELIEVES ME. They have to see for themselves. They have to see the documents. Sitting in the company vault. On the company mainframe. Please. It's a fair exchange.
Me: What is?
Mel0Drama: I'll hide your video, secure it for your users to access online. Password-protected. On a CORPORATE mainframe. Untouchable. All you have to do is tell your followers to go to my archive portal and hear my story... once they do, I'll place your video in the archive vault. They can watch it through my portal!
Me: No. Here's how I work. You host my video, keep it secure. If I'm satisfied people can see it, that The Hanso Foundation can't hack it, that YOU'RE not part of the Foundation yourself, THEN I'll put the word out to my friends to check out your "evidence" about Hackett and whatever the heck you think he's doing. Deal?
Mel0Drama: ... Deal.
Perhaps this is one of those documents held in the archive... but who released it? Rachel Blake or mel0drama?
Awesome song! WTG Keppa (?)
Thanks for the 'cast!
For those who were asking, Kate ate the Apollo bar very early on in Season 2... she went down the hatch and was captured by Desmond, then Locke came down, Desmond put a gun on him and had him tie up Kate, whom he locked in the pantry. Before she escaped, she spotted the candy bars and indulged for a moment. I believe this was the 2nd ep of Season 2.
Hi, all! It's Maven from Romania.
Just a quick check in. Some new stuff happening, but can't really follow it yet as I am on a computer in a hotel for a very short while. Just wanted to say Hi and I miss you all! Having a great time.
Here's something else that's weird about the possible Sprite/psychotropic drug connection.
Coke has been waging a major PR campaign in India to fight continuing rumors that its products contain pesticides. Why would they even in jest allow a hint of an improper ingredient during this ARG? If this memo is indeed really in-game, there's a marketing person asleep at the switch.

Another frag released
Hey everyone. Frag #31 released. Anyone found #30 yet?
Just found a new frag. it's e2ll1z5e found on rachelblake.com under links, sri lanka
nice job ib4uc!
Mr. Beardy: "Was the Valenzetti Equation"
29th must be in some kind of magazine...
You guys know that the 29th glyph is in Clue #94. We're missing 30 & 31.

we don't have 29th right?
Looks like it fits pretty well between m6xy398 and 88ch.
Ok...I see. I'm out of the loop somehow, where did this come from? HE.com?

admin: yep :)
where do I find it on HE.com? Stupid question...I know. Thanks in advance for helping...
Specifically, from this xml file.
Okay...cool! Soooo, according to that someone has found one of the two fragment codes that TLEC.com is missing?
Don't they know that they are supposed to email us? :)
admin: No, 29th has been published by HE.com but it wasn't found yet.
I agree with the confusion about why Coke would go along with an ad campaign that suggests tainted product. But the "something in the water" plot line IS consistent with the overall tone of the Lymon/Sublymonal messaging -- that Sprite has a secret ingredient that is mind expanding in some cool way. Perhaps we should be thinking about Hackett (and maybe THF, but I'm not sure) as engaged in a clandestine HEROIC operation. The hidden psychotropic substance nay be an engineered virus that has beneficial effects, or a protective countermeasure against something worse that's coming our way (Mittelwerk's bio weapons?). New Sprite, now with nanites!
$0.02
nice sequence sam!
ular98, no.
so, this fragment transcript is "is the Valenzetti equation", from "the result is the Valenzetti equation", right?
Yeah, fragment 30 was ku12pb5lv7 if that helps. 31 is e2ll1z5e.
So, the savants were used to verify the results of the Valenzetti equation...
admin: sorry about not emailing the frag info. I just stumbled across it and posted the information here. Needless to say, I didn't believe that I actually found one. I'm more of a lurker and keep up with everything from what everyone else posts.
e2ll1z5e
Nobody emailed me. Where was this found & discussed? How did I miss it?
nevermind...got it. Way to go ib4uc!
admin: don't ask for the transcript ;)
lost & ular98,
Haven't had coffee yet and don't always read comments if I have a lot going on. The one thing I ALWAYS, ALWAYS do is check the email regularly. If something new happens, the best way you guys can help us keep the blog up to date is by emailing. We're not trying to be lazy (I don't think anybody could accuse us of that) but we just really appreciate it when people email us.
I just put up a new post.
on the frontpage of the blog.
Just wanted to say good morning before I start catching up!
**Waves hello, Namaste and Goodmorning!
