Ok, so continuing from the last thread, Lindsey Adams in quoted in the article, but she can't be Leslie Adams' sister, since Veronica says that Louise and William Adams only have two children, Brody (17) and Leslie (21).

Nope, that's the Meers family. There are two Leslies so far.

jujubee September 15 2006, 03:55:54 UTC

Dammit. I can't keep them straight. Why must they use repeating names?

vanya_elda September 15 2006, 03:55:17 UTC

Brody and Leslie are Meers.

When I Googled "leslie adams" this was the second result http://www.sai-national.org/phil/composers/ladams.html

Coincidence?

pidgehuss September 15 2006, 03:54:43 UTC

(I do too. Also, this comm is rapidly taking over my reading filter, and yet I'm having too much fun to care!)

I still think that the numbers in the article are somehow significant. They are:

463 23 92 133 25 21

Also, 101 is mentioned (as a class) and "twos" (as in "walk in").

The date on the article is Aug 29 2005.

And there is "one National Merit finalist."

pidgehuss September 15 2006, 03:58:06 UTC

Good catch, I missed that!

Any chance there's an ISBN number happening here?

pidgehuss September 15 2006, 03:59:30 UTC

Scratch, too many digits.

There's also the weird image title of: pz1lyh.jpg

Still haven't figured out if it means anything.

jujubee September 15 2006, 04:08:56 UTC

The only thing I could convolute to mean anything is p=pi z=zeta and lyh=Lynwood Hills, but no clue what any of that would actually mean.

"Each piece of information will have its own password. Each password will be encrypted in a puzzle I give you."

Okay. So, we had to use a password to get to this page. Therefore, this article must be a "piece of information", correct?

jujubee September 15 2006, 04:25:28 UTC

Does that mean it's not a puzzle?

vanya_elda September 15 2006, 04:26:54 UTC

That's what I'm wondering...

pidgehuss September 15 2006, 04:41:36 UTC

As in, the article is the information and the stuff below is the puzzle? (Though, the name Adams in the article was what triggered me thinking about the Adams in the stuff below.)

So perhaps the numbers in the article aren't important in moving us forward to the next piece of information? They seem awfully specific and deliberate, though.

Where is our little anonymous helper when we need it?
