Ok, I'm not really a puzzle solver, I really like to watch the vids and see the plot unfold. But I noticed something and though I'd run it by you guys.
Now from about 4:08 to 4:35 Apoxamately Joel starts blinking his eyes. These blinks seemed rather odd to me. a few short blinks, a long blink a few short, ect ect. Normally this would seem like just some crazy guy. But I remember watching a documentery about POW pilots in vietnahm. One pilot who was interviewed by the Communist for propaganda purposes was blinking alot. He was spelling out a message in code saying that he had been torchured. Perhaps this is simmilar. What do you guys think? |

I took a look. Joel Frady definitely looks right at camera, states "I don't know what's happening to me" and then the blinks start.
This is what it looked like to me:
.. .._ ._ ... _._ .. _.
Then he looks off camera and the officer comes and wheels him away. _________________ Let me live, love and say it well in good sentences. --Sylvia Plath

well running that through the morse code translator it comes up as IUASKIN which doesn't give us much...unless he did something to somebody's skin, but I'm still hoping something's there |

I could have gotten the spacing wrong too. _________________ Let me live, love and say it well in good sentences. --Sylvia Plath

At this point, we need to be open to every possibility. _________________ Let me live, love and say it well in good sentences. --Sylvia Plath

I think you could be right...
I just cannot get it transcribed myself.

I'm sure we should all be doing something. jeromy said there would be things to solve from the very beginning - he must be really frustrated just watching us all unable to fathom it out!! _________________ Can't we all just get along? |

Nice catch, Mvidrine -- I think there might be something there, too. Not too great with Morse code myself, though I think I concur with Jenni's last two letters ("IN").
The message might not make too much sense at first, so we should look for anagrams as well. Remember, "tag bows" was "two bags" back in the day -- the first of the messages that Mr Zipp had sent to Maddy. |

If that is morse code that is goint to be an absolute biatch to transcribe. He also blinks like that at the begining and throughout. He seems to repeat the same pattern as well. Short-Short-Long. _________________ "But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

well it seems to be that the first letter is I and the last three is KIN. I don't think its an anagram, too much confusion for someone to blink it out, which is hard enough to transcribe, and then have to come up with the correct order |
