I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Entertainment Weekly senior writer and LOST theorist Jeff "Doc" Jensen for a chat filled with wisdom, intrigue, a few bits of clarification from the inside, and much much more. The results will be published shortly!
In the meantime, just how accurate are Jeff's theories? He has a pretty solid sounding theory on how The LOST Experience game may end.. give it a read here.. and stay tuned for part one of my talk with Jeff.

The ROT gang had another conversation on 7/27. (Password is still Steinbeck).
Very interesting. BroadBandBeatnik is back. But his excuse for going missing is lame, and his evidence is even more lame. Something's not right.
Check it out for yourselves.
Go here to discuss: New ROT thread (Forums)
As always, check below for info on Glyphs and Codes.

Rachel posted again today, July 25th.
She gave us an FAQ.
Check it out. She answers some of the lingering questions about the experience. And, as always, raises a few more... at least in my mind.
See for yourselves.

Short update today.
Rachel Blake is at it again! This time we're headed to Iceland. Apparently there is more information leading us to Iceland, however I don't want to ruin anything so I'll let you just experience the new info for yourselves!
Click Here!
Even though we are headed to Iceland, thats backseat to the new Contributor we will be reading and possibly hearing from (Maybe some new Videos?)
The one that started the flame wars in the comments box, the one, the only......
GidgetGirl!!!!!!!
Here is an excerpt of her information, found at Rachel Blakes site.
Rachel, I have two pieces of information to share. I realize now, having watched yesterday's video, that you're literally putting your life on the line for this. And though you know I'm not a huge fan of your methods, I respect what you're trying to do. (Though, I still wish I knew why.)
I know you're a skeptic, but I assure you, I'm in a position to share things that nobody else knows about The Hanso Foundation.
Good Luck with future investigations!

Transcript from the Video (roughly)
"I have no business coming out like this, but I need to clear the air on something. Consider this my public appology to DJ Dan. I had the wrong person, and will make it right soon. To the believers I must stay away for awhile, but keep digging. Jeep got us into the contract for good Reason. I'm proud of that and will reveal what I can, when I can. Thank you Maestro48 your a true believer.

Rachel Blake is still hard at work, trying to take down The Hanso Foundation...
She's got a new blog up on her Stop Hanso page over at http://stophanso.rachelblake.com where she lets us know she's right on Dr. Mittelwerk's tail.
She also mentions that she's got a new video of her surveillance efforts, but that we have to find it and the only lead she gives us is a link to http://www.retrieversoftruth.com.
So after heading to the Retrievers Of Truth website and accessing the *secret blog, we decided to check out the links in there. More specifically, the link:
http://www.BroadbandStories.com
Nothing out of the ordinary to the naked eye, but if you were to check out all the "stories" on the page by clicking on them, one doesn't coincide with its cover picture (the Motorcyle one):
If you click on it, you'll realize quickly it has nothing to do with broadband and that it's actually Rachel Blake's second video entry.
After you check out the video, discuss it up over at The Lost Experience forums!
Man, she is one cute spy....
ANYWAYS
*Here's a quick recap on how to access the hidden forums:
1. Head over to http://www.retrieversoftruth.com
2. In the e-mail box type Porter
3. From here you can access all the posts

Well, we all know that the Hanso Foundation site has been "shutdown" because of all of Persephone's hacking...
However, Persephone must have found a way around their security measures because she's still sending us messages through their site. If you head to http://www.thehansofoundation.org after it's been "shutdown" and you patiently wait without moving your mouse for exactly 100 seconds, you should see something like this...
It goes by quick, so if you missed it, it read:
orientation_testing_issue_1980
Because of the way it's written, we decided to put it at the end of The Hanso Foundation's link to make:
http://www.thehansofoundation.org/orientation_testing_issue_1980
If you head there, it appears to be an orientation video from the Dharma Initiative that we've yet to see...
Head to the link to enjoy the full video!

Ok, so SINCE The Hanso Foundation website has been "shut-down", it hasn't stopped our friend Persephone from leaving us clues...
So if you head to Persephone's page at http://persephone.thehansofoundation.org, you'll see a picture kinds like this (Except upside down):
Who is this person? (Why are they upside down?) Well, we're not quite sure yet, but we DID know that there was a clue in there someplace and before long we found these numbers by reversing the audio played on P's page:
101 118 105 100 101 110 116 32 97 103 101 110 100
When put through an ASCII translator, these numbers produce the following message:
evident agend
Where's this leading us? Good question...
After snooping around a bit in The Hanso Foundation's source code we find a link to a website:
http://www.rachelblake.com
If you head over there, everything seems normal except a little box at the bottom that prompts the user for text:
All you have to do is take our already existing clue of evident agend and slap an extra "a" on the end to get:
evident agenda
This is the password to log into Rachel Blake's secret blog where there's an interesting video of her telling us a bit about her master plan for trying to stop The Hanso Foundation.
(An easier Way to get here is to simply type http://stophanso.rachelblake.com into your browser)
Where does it all come together? Hopefully we find out soon!

Well you gotta give it up to DJ Dan for this next clue...
If you head over to DJ Dan's page at http://djdan.am , you'll notice one of the pictures at the bottom of his page is actually a click-able link now.
(The Radio Tower Pic here is the one I'm referring to)
When you click it, you are redirected to http://www.thehansofoundation.org/swf/extra/spies/ which will give you this pic:
Kinda confusing at first, but with a little work from all of The Lost Experience's computer savvy detectives (And after fooling around with Photoshops colour palettes) we get the following result:
Soooo we came up with the INgenius plan to put the filename and our picture together to get:
Conspiraspies
This is not only a phrase coined and used by Mr. DJ Dan himself, but it also happens to be Persephone's "Magic Word" she will ask you for on the ERI page of The Hanso Foundation's website...
To recap how and where to use this password:
1. Head to http://www.thehansofoundation.org
2. Click "Active Projects" on the left hand side of the page
3. Click the "Electromagnectic Research Initiative" link
4. Click the picture with the X and Y coordinates on it
Your page will look something like this at this point:
Again, Pics of what's revealed after this (And another update) coming SOON!

OK, time for an overdue update!
Let's start things off with the Mental Health Appeal page being updated:
We've all been wondering about the "Inquire Today" box on the Mental Health Appeal page, and what it's for...
Finally Persephone has offered some closure on that with her "hole" clues. Her page was updated last week with the following numbers:
43 49 32 116 105 109 101 108 101 115 115 32 116 111 103 101 116 104 101 114
In ASCII code, this translates to "+1 timeless together". Another "+1" led us to hole4.thehansofoundation.org:
Merging hole 4 with any of the other holes got us no where fast. After further reading into the "timeless together" part of her clue however, we decided to merge the filenames together and see what we could come up with:
If you take all of the file names:
q9als2002 t9agen75 u8egnce86
-MINUS the years at the end of each filename (2002/75/86)-
q9als t9agen u8egnce
-Respectively change the numbers to letters (9=i,8=h)-
qials tiagen uhegnce
-You now have an anagram for-
light sequence again
This is the password to the Mental Health Appeal section which provides us with more goodies (Pics Coming)...

6-8-06- DJ Dan mentions the IGA in his recent podcast, found here. http://podcast.monster.com/articles/conspiraspy/, he mentions that the IGA is also tested on animals, including the infamous Shark with the Dharma Logo. I raise the question if any other animals could be involved. and then there was this...
At the Hanso Site, you'll notice under the RSS feed, that The Institute for Genomic Advancement, has been updated. After you make your way to this, follow these instructions, for the connection between The Hanso Foundation and Retrievers of Truth- could this be a hack from Persephone or was this implemented by THF themselves?
Hover your mouse over this cell found at the top right corner of the screen. Once you do that, you'll notice in the X-ray results the word Retrievers
Continue to do the following like so, to learn how Retrievers of Truth is connected to The Hanso Foundation. More importantly, was this clue made to lead us towards Vincent? Or is this simply just another advertising ploy by our newest Ingame Company- Verizon. I guess only time will tell.

Another day, another sad, overt commercialization of the LOST game. On http://www.retrieversoftruth.com if you enter "porter" in the email field you will be taken to a secret forum, allegedly sat up by DSLerator who is the alleged webmaster of the ROT site.
In between talking about Hanso's efforts to use FIOS technology for evil, and the mindless ramblings of characters with other Verizon products for names (Iobi), we learn that there is a conspiracy at Hanso. Uh, yeah... we knew that.
There are three sites mentioned: www.richerdeeperbroader.com, http://emri.perception.net, and http://www.andyfoulds.co.uk/amusement/economists.htm. I believe these are all three "out of game". The first is definitely there for commerical purposes.
The message says to check back often. Who knows, maybe something meaningful will show up... maybe it will turn into a gian Verizon ad. Who knows.

Yes there is a new website into the frey: www.retrieversoftruth.com! It appears to be a serious study on psychic animals, including a rather familiar looking yellow lab. Interesting that the doctor who runs ROT is named "Vincent".
Quick fingered foiler fiends were quick to grab up the misspelled www.retreiversoftruth.com and promptly fill it with bogus information.
www.retreiversoftruth.com (i after e) is NOT in game!
www.retrieversoftruth.com (i before e) IS in game!
Subscribe to the Newsletter on this page and you will receive this introductory story, which is telling us to look for an anagram!
You're about to enter...
First let's start this by saying, "thank you."
There's a word into which dreams can come true. This email is your gateway to that word and more that will open your mind and your consciousness.
Imagine a field - a field of yellow... yellow labs running free, playful, and enjoying each other's company. But in their hearts they are not complete. They miss an integral part of their being and the thing that makes their existence complete. That one thing is the "word"
for which we all search - mankind and labkind.
But first a story.
I was checking into a hotel and a dapper porter escorts me to my room.
As we're going up the elevator in total silence I decide to ask him his name. He replies, "Mandrake Wig" and immediately starts to explain the odd name, his German ancestry, and his mother's preoccupation with botany. He ends the story by saying, "my friends just call me Manny."
We continue talking about our lives, hopes, and dreams as I'm getting settled in my room. When he's done I offer a generous tip but he refuses saying, "Let me give you a tip, a single word that will enrich your life, as it has mine." I accept.
The next day I go to the front desk to leave a tip for Manny. They tell me no such person works there. I question everyone with no luck. I think about what he told me and write down his name so I don't forget it. As I write I see something in the letters. I rearrange a few and create the words, "waking dream."
The word he gave me that day was - YOU.
Yours truly, Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bole

Over at http://persephone.thehansofoundation.org the numbers were changed to '+ 1'. This brought us onto http://hole3.thehansofoundation.org.
This now shows a broken image link, but when this was first found an image was there and you can view that below... UPDATE: The image is now up and online at http://hole3.thehansofoundation.org
If you look VERY carefully, under the right eye you can just make out grey markings. When you play about with the colours, you can come up with:

David tells us:
persephone.thehansofoundation.org has changed! run numbers 106 103 157 162 235 45 122 202 39 122 26 39 162 218 222 151 42 39 142 87 168 186 through http://www.paulschou.com/tools/xlate/ in the dec/char box and do an anagram of the resulting decode from the box base64:
amedoustesonehonotrelyonjleougWhich is an anagram for:a mouse does not rely on just one hole
Apparently g was an error for s? This is also a phrase from the blast door map in the LOST episode "LockDown"
Or maybe not. You must remember the safe-g controversy with the morse code. After much debate, it was determined it was not a mistake, yet the meaning remains unknown. Could the relation between g and s in this mystery be a clue? Or is the fact that a G has turned up out of place twice telling us anything? Stay tuned.

Well, in Peter's mail box there are images concerning a Jeep contract gone wrong. Click on the "INBOX" and you get a message. This is the message from whence "themouthpiece" came:

Thanks to Persephone (and Sprite) the real Hugh Mcintyre has been revealed! Go to hughes bio page and enter the password themouthpiece (as decoded from the peter thompson email).
You'll get a page like this:
Click on the highlighted text to be taken inside Hugh's world. We learn that Hugh is having an affair.
And what follows seems to indicate Hugh may have some drug and money problems. Click on the floating pieces of paper to look over some of the bills involved in his tryst. Any hidden clues in there? Be sure we'll let you know!
Meanwhile over on
http://www.letyourcompassguideyou.com/ once you have penetrated the opening screen, as shown below, you can get into hughes unix system folder. There are some interesting things in the history. As well as the Mail folder. In the folder you can go to a YouTube video which is a commercial for a jeep commercial. At the end of the commercial, there is a dharma logo in faint red. Can't wait for the image enhancements!

We seem to be seeing an update in revision! The Hugh Mcintyre login box is back. But Hughe's picture is gone? Maybe somebody forgot to pay the licensing fee to Getty images? (Stock clip art agency where most of the Hanso pics came from.)
Man, Hugh looks a lot like Liddy!
