Additional bit of information that connects to my earlier post:

Jerry Garcia (lead singer of the Grateful Dead) was found dead in his room at a rehab clinic on August 9, 1995, at 4:23 AM. 324 backwards. I haven't found a connection to the date, but...

Gotta love those random coincidences. Or connections, depending on whether or not I'm right...

A few months ago there was a little discussion I think on CD about "counterweights" in the upcoming season ?

Y'know, if you switch the coordinates, you get a spot in Antarctica. There is a Trinity Church in Antarctica too. Its not near the coordinates though.:(

What a cool solution to the problem. Thank you for posting that information, Andy! Neato.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
 

Discworld fans will recognize twice four, or the sum of six and two, as the one number that must never be uttered by wizards. The cube of two represents the magical number, and its forms (octahedrons, octagons, etc) are considered very sacred. The eighth son of the eighth son is unavoidably a wizard (unless of course the eighth son of the eighth son turns out to be a daughter).
We can only hope that Bergholt Stuttley Johnson (aka Bloody Stupid Johnson) isn't designing the field....

this reminds me of all of the symbolism surrounding 'v' in v for vendetta.

Refering to an earlier post in which someone referenced This Comic. I went ahead and typed in the first number mentioned in the comic. it brought me HERE.
Note the picture of the jungle gym, and click on it for the larger view seen HERE.
WHat on this earth is this jungle gym made of?
Triangular beams, Square grid for a net, and Spheres at each and every vertex.

ANd as an added bonus: the inside of the gym: http://flickr.com/photos/zebraman/436932817/
More triangles, squares, and spheres.
Probably an insane coincidence and not actual evidence but hey...

I THINK ITS THE ANSWER TO THE WATER GAME

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
 

Today was the release date for National
Treasure 2-book of Secrets Movie-hence the reason why the hint was
released today. The (Clue) coordinates point
to...downtown Boston--Trinity Church--the court yard. (in the air above)

If you have seen the first National Treasure Movie--
one of the clues in the movie ( "along the wall"--wall street) was
Trinity Church in Boston

The game clue (rhyme) that FIRST put out at the end of last season
had something about Wall street.

I don't know about you guys--but We are watching the First National
Treasure movie tonight!

If you mean Woodie's clue, it referred to the stock market (close enough to wall street). But, the Trinity Church in the movie is in NYC, not Boston.

Still, it's another connection...

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
 

Some more back history on the Hancock....the positioning of the building and the use of the mirrors were used so that when you stand on the corner of Clarendon Street and St. James Avenue you can see the reflection of the old two John Hancock buildings in the glass of the new one.

Mirrors, anyone?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
 

Guys we got the coordinate idea.. it doesn't seem to be revealing anything at all..


Think different, no more coordinates, lets try something else. what else could those numbers represent?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
 

We know that If you take the lat/long and feed it into google earth, and then zoom in, there is some kind of thing right at the exact coordinates.

I don't think it's a "coincidence" that there is something at that exact coordinate. You can change the last digit of the lat-long and it doesn't move the target. That amount of precision is good to a few inches.

I checked out all the images and came up with one that shows the quad lamp at that point.

Here is the link. The lamp is in the lower right corner.
