We should probably figure out which tones correspond to which numbers on the touch tone phone...

56 Stark Street.

No useful anagrams for "stark"
Only literal Google result is for: http://dsf.pacounties.org/luzerne/lib/l … 24-154.pdf

Looks unrelated.

Can anyone make out what numbers are being pressed on the recording?

My work phone doesn't make the beeps...


EDIT:

56 Stark St, Manchester, Hillsborough, NH 03101
56 Stark St, Nashua, Hillsborough, NH 03064
56 Stark St, Portsmouth, Rockingham, NH 03801

That's Hillsborough County, and Rockingham County, in NH

This is about the point in time I wish I had a touch tone phone.

Anyone think the quote on HeistAgent ("Everything you can imagine is real - Pablo Picasso") has anything to do with the mission?  Basically, when I google, I get pages and pages of eQuotes.

I'm guessing here but maybe the keytones represent the phone number to whatever is at 56 Stark Street.

#include <unistd.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
void main(){int p=ntohl(0x6E696E65);int q[]={p,ntohl(0x7479),p,0xA};write(1,&q,0x10);}

There's also a 56 Stark Street in Plains (or Wilkes-Barre according to Google Maps) PA...this is also the only one that comes up if you search for "56 stark street" on Google.

The 3rd and 4th tones are identical, so odds are the first 4 tones are 1800, 1866 or 1877.  It's not 1888.  Someone will have this worked out soon.

There is no 523 area code as far as I can tell.

Anything is possible, very few things actually happen.

area code 523 is to illinois.... Port Byron.

If its not 523, maybe an area code lookup will give us the city?

Well, according to this site: http://www.areacodedownload.com/309//523/index.html, the area code is... exchange?  I'm totally clueless on this one!

I got that number (583621351), I'm almost certain it's wrong, but the results for google are similar for that number and 56 stark street.

Maybe some sort of nutritional thing?
