Hmm...What happened at 5:48 AM on 12/7/1900? Anyone know? I don't.
And I understand reading 500+ posts does take a while. I think pages one and two have the coordinates mapped. (As a side note, they've also been placed in the Antarctic and in Greenland, and mapped on Mars.)

Actually, if I've figured
anything out, it's that the coodinates do NOT correspond to the location of the statue, which is located further east - within the trees. The object that has appeared in the imagery is likely two or four people that were simply standing there - it's definitely NOT the statue (or the "quad" lamppost that was also talked about).
Beyond that, I'm pretty much sold on the 3rd number being a compass bearing, since it lines up pretty well with the grid the streets around there follow. Clearly, the idea is to stand somewhere in the Square (not 100% sure of where), look in that direction (towards Boylston St), and see something meaningful.
Oh, and the real name of the restaurant being mentioned at length is the "Globe Bar & Cafe" (vs. "Globe Bar & Grill", or "Globe Cafe).
Also, it seems like it's a strong hint that perhaps floating-point math will be an issue.
