Precisely, it's not got anything to do. I think Squirellmail is just an open source mail app the devs used to get something done quick.

It's owned by TUCOWS? Of all things?

Created in 1997, though. I don't think we have anything.

Who cares if we're on digg or not. Digg is dumb. Move on with the heist. I'm stuck too.

We just have to solve it fast before we get digginated to death.

Fuck moonphases, I think this has to do with the elements.

Lets brainstorm on what an element is.

perhaps the atomic number of the elements add up or multiply or something to get the magic code?

ok I think it's pretty obvious that what we need to brainstorm on is the table of elements. perhaps each mythological god represents one element? and if so then most likely we should look at the number of each of those elements on the periodical table... so what were the 4 elements again?

"However, the complete phrase, "Elementary, my dear Watson", does not appear in any of the sixty Holmes stories written by Conan Doyle. It does appear at the very end of the 1929 film, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, the first Sherlock Holmes sound film, and may owe its familiarity to its use in Edith Meiser's scripts for The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes radio series. The phrase was first used by American actor William Gillette though." wikipedia...also "the sign of the four" was Doyle's second novel, with sherlock holmes

I was looking at this earlier but I couldn't figure a reason for a separate image but it is odd that it's very dark and by itself...

Another note on the images - the lune.png file is the only image with a black matte background- the others are transparent.

Anyone find it odd that, of the four pictures at ilikeolives the girl is the only one with a dark background, light shirt while the others have dark shirts/light backgrounds? I'm as stuck as everyone else and just trying to look at other ideas.

OK let's reboot our minds, alright?

we're pondering on elements/periodical table

Helios (god of sun) = Helium [2]
Prometheus (god of fire) = ?
Ares (god of war) = ?
Deimos (god of dread) = ?
