If you look at each number in the meaning of the words, they are all numbers that are equivalent to a fraction.  For instance, the ''3rd'' in Levi would translate to ''1/3''.  As such, the following fractions were made:
  
'Gershwin's low cloudville' is London. He wrote a song called 'A Foggy Day' about London in the film 'A Damsel in Distress' with Frank Sinatra.

:1/3, 1/5, 1/15, 1/5, and 1/5
  
'Sun is shining' is also a lyric from 'A Foggy Day'

If you add all these fractions togther, you get 15/15.
  
'113-119' - Foyles bookshop is on 113-119 Charing Cross Road, London.

This is the same number that resulted from [[Linc's voice mail|'''Linc's phone mashup puzzle''']] and ultimately led us to the [[YouTube]] account, [[15OVER15]].

After the clues from the Cafe Coco, Nashville drop led us to Ray's Jazz Shop in Foyles cafe in London, England, three attempts were made to retrieve the new drop. The first two were made by RedRevolver and Ezekiel, but were unsuccessful. However, a new user, named Afo went to the store and was able to retrieve the drop.

15over15

The signature for this letter was Levi, Deuteronomy, Masa'il, Evaristus, and the Hebrew letter Hay.

  • Levi = 3rd son of Jacob and Leah
  • Deuteronomy = 5th book of the hebrew bible
  • Masa'il = 15th month of the Baha'i Calendar
  • Evaristus = 5th pope
  • (hay) = 5th letter of hebrew alphabet

If you look at each number in the meaning of the words, they are all numbers that are equivalent to a fraction. For instance, the 3rd in Levi would translate to 1/3. As such, the following fractions were made:

1/3, 1/5, 1/15, 1/5, and 1/5

If you add all these fractions togther, you get 15/15.

This is the same number that resulted from Linc's phone mashup puzzle and ultimately led us to the YouTube account, 15OVER15.
