Cogitoergosum Blog

Beginning December 10, 2007, the "Who is Richard Drucker?" page at NBC.com was updated:

As of 12/10/07, Drucker has not yet responded... or has he?

The link directs to a thread at 9thwonders.com, titled "A new Announcement, We Received a Mysterious letter...", which includes a link to a mysterious document under the cogitoergosum blog. ( Cogito ergo sum translates to "I think, therefor I am.")

In My Heart...

The cogitoergosum blog's first post is dated December 05, 04:37 PM. Titled "In my heart...", the letter says:

In my heart I know she was beautiful, but I
only knew her for a moment. He was bold, I am
sure, but of him I remember nothing. Is it possible that
when passion gets stirred with violence something
Remarkable can be born? Is that what started
it all... a stolen moment beneath the
gathering clouds?

You might think of this as a new beginning, but
there are no beginnings and no endings. When we are
pulled from the loop of our lives, the order of
things becomes unbalanced, and balance is
something I have sought for years.

Those of you who find this message must
Know that I am here, but not here.
This is part of me, but not part of me.
And exposure might bring danger
to us all.

Postcard

On December 12, 2007, a postcard stamped from Bhutan was posted on the cogitoergosum blog. The postcard had no date or address.

The front of the postcard is an image of the Tiger's Nest Monastery.

The text on the back of the postcard is a JavaScript program.

The JavaScript program on the back of the postcard reads:

var keyStr = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/=";
var output = "";
var chr1, chr2, chr3;
var enc1, enc2, enc3, enc4;
var i = 0;
var input = "WW91IGFyZSBwbGF5aW5nIHdpdGggZmlyZS4gUGxlYXNlIHN0b3AgeW91ciBpbnZlc3RpZ2F0aW9ucyBpbnRvIG15IHBhc3Qh";
do {
enc1 = keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));
enc2 = keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));
enc3 = keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));
enc4 = keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++));
chr1 = (enc1 << 2 ) | (enc2 >> 4);
chr2 = ((enc2 & 15) << 4) | (enc3 >> 2);
chr3 = ((enc3 & 3) << 6) | enc4;
output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr1);
alert(output);
if ( enc3 != 64 ) {
output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr2);
}
if ( enc4 != 64 ) {
output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr3);
}
} while ( i < input.length)
alert(output);

When this program is run on a webpage, several alert messages pop up, with the final one being the complete message:

You are playing with fire. Please stop your investigations into me!

William Congreve puzzle

Cogitoergosum was updated December 19, 2007, at 04:08 PM with a riddle. It reads:

The playwright William Congreve said that "music has charms to soothe a savage breast. To soften rocks or bend a knotted oak." I myself was once tamed a long time ago. My favorite things are still in this past even as I'm being drawn to the present.

Show me you understand the things I hold dear...

iv7, V7(#5), i7, vii7 III7, VI7, III7(#5), i7, VII7, iv7, i7

iv7,V7(#5), i7, vii7 III7, VI7, V7(#5), i7, II7, v7, i7

The quote is from Act 1, Scene 1 of William Congreve's 1697 play, The Mourning Bride. The code appears to be the chord progression for "Blue in Green", a Miles Davis jazz song.
