Edit a correlation.  Retaliation credo.  Relocation tirade.  It oratorical eden.  Dire taco relation!

Anyway, if it plays out like the Indiana Rogers thing (don't ask) you'll get a big box of moldy magazines and flea market trash which you are apparently supposed to fashion into collages which you will direct at "people in the East" as if this were some kind of crusade. Of course, you are in the East, so some other ploy might be used. If there is a TOXIS, then there must be other more sophisticated operators because obviously the front line is totally bush league.

You definitely keep people posted if you have been "chosen."

I think the nixie sticker is a red herring and possibly ersatz.  no seal, no official walrus ...

"Although there at least aught a town identified" - wow, that one's a keeper for the Tim Leary one liners.

Not trying to beat a dead horse to water, but there is this Dkult situation in Brooklyn and you get a strange package from Long Island -just sayin' - and you weighed in on the issue to some extent. Although there at least aught a town identified.

The way this phase usually plays out is next you get mail from Grigori Antonin in Minneapolis. It'll be all this stuff about how people are circulating these lies about him and he's this really great guy. That should appear like clockwork, although some elements of the game have changed unaccountably of late. (G-Man is pegged as the founder of TOXIS and never has denied it to my knowledge.)

If there had been postage stamps, they would have been cancelled and whether they fell off or not, there should be evidence of a postmark...and some customs documentation. this package is so pristine, one theory posits there was an outer wrapping destroyed in transit, hence the nixie intervention. more likely, it is as DVS surmised, TOXIS trying to infiltrate my lab. who knows what kind of hi-tek spyware is glued beneath those benign animal images? who is this "Andrea Roccioletti?"

"approved by a nixie clerk in Long Island, NY" - who is the gatekeeper to LI? Brooklyn, of course. So it's from TOXIS.

By the way, Andrea, I love the comment you made about "Elementary, my dear Watson..." because I am a real fan of mysteries and detective stories. Actually have a reputation for my "detective" tendencies in my family. It was very fun to see that observation.  Linda

I have found that postage stamps, especially the lick-'em kind, flake away from some kinds of paper. That could explain it. Also, I know that international mail is sorted at least twice from here before it leaves the country. If there is no postage on a package leaving Two Harbors, it tends to get kicked back to the sender right here. So, maybe if the package gets as far as Long Island, the nixie clerk can assume there was postage on it at least at the post office of origin.  Maybe?    Linda
