Whispers
New reader Amber passed on some information from the Fuselage that I wasn’t aware of. Really great stuff Amber - thanks!
We all know that there have been times when we have heard whispers. Often difficult to hear and decifer the whispers haven’t really meant anything to me until now.
There is a great post at the Fuselage that I highly recommend you read. Two contributors, rvturnage and penyours are avid audiophiles. They have taken the time to break down each of the whispers. Please CLICK HERE to access their post.
When the timer went down to zero with Locke frantically entering the numbers into the computer there where several whispers. The whispers are very sophisticated - they come in on different channels on your stereo (left, right and center) and at different speeds. The beauty is that you can download the audio files yourself and listen to them. Here is the link to the post. Thanks so much to those two for their work in preparing the transcripts.
From rvturnage here is the text:

Talk about some interesting stuff! It appears that the whoever is whispering can see what is going on inside the hatch. What we don’t know is if Henry can hear the whisperings? Is he somehow dialed in to what is being said? Is Henry affiliated with the whispering or are the folks whispering just following his progress?
Tons and tons of questions. Any thoughts - post your comments!
