Friends,
I come to you not as another hopeful hoax, nor to make you think I am a band
member. I come to you as an aid to those who walked before me.
Remember these words:
-------------------------------------------------------
Trust in those who have walked before.
Be wary of she who is on the grass, in the hall, and in your head.
Keep your dreams alive, for only then will you reach understanding.
No one has all the answers. Neither does anyone have all the questions.
I am not what you think I am, but neither am I an uninvited guest.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
Watch the world around you carefully. I will tell you one thing right now that
I do know for sure - there is one person who posts to this newsgroup that is
mentally unbalanced. She is not to be given any heed. I need not name names -
you all know whom I refer to.
Whether or not Dave watches us, it is wrong to assume that Genesis is Gilmour.
Do not rule out the possibility that the two are one, but also do not believe
the rationalization of she who has a sharpe eye and a dulle mind.
Again, trust in those who have walked before. That is what I am doing.
Your Friend In Perfect Love And Perfect Trust,
Shadow /~\

Welcome, friends.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I come not as a hopeful hoax or a band member, but as a watcher. My words are
unimportant. My actions are not.
Most importantly, heed these words: I am not an uninvited guest.
Nichole: Check the profile again. Is this not what you expected to see?
Jerome: You are most perceptive. Keep *thinking*.
Bedwarmer: Time travel is possible, but not in the manner which you intend.
I ask you all to investigate the possibilities. Jerome is most correct in
seeing a lack of a pattern in names. Amicus and Publius may well be connected,
though that is for him to know - not me. Genesis... well, who can say? I speak
only for me. I am real. This address on AOL is real. E-mail me if you wish, but
be advised that I will not answer questions lightly. Also, you may report me to
AOL if you wish to terminate my presence, but I believe you will find that such
a deed would be damaging to the task of solving the puzzles before you.
I am a seeker, no different than the rest of you. We all seek the truth, and
the light, and the knowledge, though few will find it.
Remember: the lunatic is naught but what he/she appears, but may be used as the
stars and the winds are.
Know this: I watch all of you. From where I am, I see the course of events that
takes shape. I offer no solutions, no answers, and no questions... yet.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep *thinking*. Only through introspection do we achieve wisdom.
In Perfect Love And Perfect Trust,
Shadow (/~\)

Welcome, friends.
-------------------------------------------
Jerome: I find your lack of faith disturbing. It seems the doppleganger must
give way to the invisible servantin order to redeem his honor. Keep
*thinking*.
Bonzo: Things are not always what they seem.
Potwng: Check the profile again.
Denise: The blade is tempered. Only now can it be cooled and wielded.
RM: You must deal with that which is within you. I have seen your dark side...
can you, at last, look not to the south, but within?
-----------------------------------------------------
A suggestion: Heed Amicus's words. Complete the puzzle. Write the story on your
own terms. Watch and wait. Keep *thinking*.
-----------------------------------------------------
Remember: I come to you not as a hopeful hoax, nor as a band member, but as a
watcher. Neither am I an uninvited guest.
Keep *thinking*.

Welcome, Friends.
---------------------------------------------------
I come not as a hopeful hoax or a band member, but as a watcher. Neither am I
an uninvited guest.
--------------------------------------------------
You all please me greatly. Only by trusitng in one another can you hope to
trust anyone else. So, too, can this trust be used to ferret out those who
would deceive you.
Nick, I extend my sincerest apologies for any inconvenience caused you. If none
will believe you, I will gladly oblige any other AOL members by appearing in a
chatroom WITH Nick to prove once and for all that we are indeed two very
different people.
Denise, please open up your mind. Only then shall you see the truth.
A suggestion: Little attention has been given to Obscured By Clouds. Examine it
more closely. Answers might lie within.
As my alacrity grows, so too does my show of appreciation.

Welcome, friends.
--------------------------
I come to you not as a band member or a hopeful hoax, but neither am I an
uninvited guest. My identity is unimportant. Think of me as a red-cloaked
minister pushing you into the sunshine.
--------------------------
Perhaps you all thought I had forgotten you. I have not. I simply waited to
examine further your ambitions and actions before giving my next message.
That is, MY next message. None others.
--------------------------
Denise: You have a most disturbing problem with finding all the right clues and
all the wrong answers. Look without, not within.
Jerome: You pointed out a spelling error in my last message and questioned its
meaning. It was simply a typographical error. I do not communicate that way.
Keep *THINKING*.
Bleech: A message will appear with the arrival of the new gold - it's in the...
-------------------------
And, finally, a parting note:
Ye shall see another horse, one the color of sunlight and coffee, and he shall
point the way. Look to the three feet, the evil leader, and the fountain of
thought for further clues.

Greetings, friends.
I come not as a hopeful hoax, nor as anyone in connection with Pink Floyd
(though their message may yet be mine). Neither am I an uninvited guest.
---------------------------
A girl's wall begins to collapse, and those who really love her do their best
to pick up the pieces. Such has it been during my absence, and such will it be
in the future, I fear. Still, I am pleased and impressed. My mission begins to
complete itself. Banners under banners, and those beneath banners, and those
beneath stars.
A new message: keep *FEELING*, as well as thinking. John Steinbeck's early
metaphor might serve as a good example, also.
-----------------------------
Some of you question my identity. Some of you do not care. Some of you mock me.
You mock what you cannot comprehend. My identity is wrapped in shadows, not
because I wish to keep myself hidden, but because I am already exposed in the
blinding light.
-----------------------------
A trade takes place: pure fantasy for twisted reality.
-----------------------------
Communication is made between two mirror images. Their contrast and duality is
immense and measureless. Add another mirror.
-----------------------------
The horse and its rider continue on their journey. Look to the evil leader for
a clue, if his servant bid permission.
May the darkness and the light walk with you all.
