Paula,
I have been reading along here for a while now, watching everyone speculate as to what this or that means. The whole time, I have sat in a position of knowing exactly what key aspects of the 'Titor' story are about. I know this because I have been able to crack the code, and only because I have the key to said code, ...and only because it was intended that I have the key.
Although very few, there are others like myself that are able to look deeper into it and see something the rest do not. While everyone is focusing on the cover story, I am seeing another that very much differs.
I have watched as hoaxers and imposters are simply rejected because their information doesn't line up with what claimed 'experts' 'know' as truth. I have also watched people with legitimate information also be rejected for the same reason. TR is a good example.
Which brings me to Sam...
Sam is a claimed 'expert' because she has done a lot of research into 'Titor'. The problem with her 'expertise' is that it is based upon the cover story, which was obviously intended as a decoy story and medium for inserting cryptic messages as well as a means to obfuscate. Sam has made up her mind about a lot of things, and is thus quick to reject anything that she does not interpret as truth. While I can certainly understand the skepticism and frustration with hoaxers and such, she has nonetheless served as a roadblock by not keeping a more open mind.
The other night in chat, she was quick to judge me as a hoaxer, accused me of being TR, and basically rejected anything I had to say. To be clear, I understand her position and hold no animosity. In fact, I kinda like Sam. Perhaps that's why I pick on her sometimes.
Part of my intent in chat the other night was to feel you all out to see if you guys are ready for it. Most here simply are not. People would rather get wrapped up in drama than to actually listen and think. If people cannot handle a simple conversation, then they surely aren't ready.
Whether you all realize it or not, I gave you tons of valuable information. I did so in form of riddle, and because no one wanted to actually think about it, because people were too busy rejecting, it went right over your heads. I basically told you what 177 means, and you are all still trying to figure it out. Lol.
So, I will just sit back and be entertained by the continued speculation.
