    wow, I could spend my whole day there

    That is seriously freaky. Really. It's almost disturbing. Think I may have to see this film.

    that's how they suckered me into seeing Blair Witch. I ALMOST beleived it (website anyway, not the movie)

    I'm stuck at this website: http://www.aleph-naught.org/index.asp?a=1

    It told me that I had to come back in 15 minutes (I had gotten past the first part), but every time I've logged back on since then (and it's been an hour), it tells me I've come back too soon. I cleaned out my cookie cache, but that hasn't helped. This is so annoying.

    OK, I got back in. I got the riddle wrong again.

    "I'm thinking of something that Miss Eliza only misses when it's gone. What could it be?"

    I guessed air this time. I got this:



    Caecilians
    Caecilians, you're breaking my heart
    You're shaking my confidence daily
    Oh, Caecilians, I'm down on my knees
    I'm searching for you in the mud
    Caecilians, you're breaking my heart
    You're shaking my confidence daily
    Oh, Caecilians, I'm down on my knees
    I'm searching for you in the mud
    In the mud

    IDing one afternoon some Caecilians
    Up in my lab room (identifying)
    I got up to get my key
    when I come back to lab
    my caecilians gone free

    Caecilians, you're breaking my heart
    You're shaking my confidence daily
    Oh, Caecilians, I'm down on my knees
    I'm searching for you in the mud
    In the mud

    Modification,
    Lost all their limbs,
    Squirm on the floor and I laughing,

    Modification,
    Rings of keratin,
    Down on the floor and I'm laughing



    all apologies to Paul Simon


    ------------------------------------------


    Clearly, I didn't solve the riddle. Help?

    i got into the tea room, interesting


By Spunky on Friday, June 15, 2001 - 03:44 pm:

    working on it


By Spider on Friday, June 15, 2001 - 03:45 pm:

    OK, never mind. I did a search on "eliza" "jeanine salla" and found a message board saying that this website wasn't part of the official game and is nothing more than an update of the original Eliza script. (I remember playing with Eliza when I was a kid in my aunt's psych lab...that must have been 15 years ago.)

    This game is so cool. You can call Jeanine Salla's voicemail and hear her messages...

    this is a lot of fun, I'm gonna have to mess with this tonight after the kids go to bed so I can concentrate on it.
    Only thing is the ld bill

    you are both wasting your time.

    Try eyesight, time or opportunity.

    You're showing your narrow vision, cat in the pat
