Bernard Nadler

Bernard Nadler is a tail section survivor of the crash of Oceanic Flight 815 and the husband of Rose. He is the only tail section survivor that has not been killed, captured, or assimilated in to the Others. He wasn't seated in the tail section, and was only there when the plane crashed because he was using the bathroom then. Bernard cares very much for Rose and feels a need to fix things, like her cancer, not dissimilar to Jack.

Default 6/7/2006 - new ARG site: Retrievers of the truth

I haven't had time to look at this - it will have to wait until after work. But here's what they had to say at the Lost Experience Blog

Quote:
Well it looks like our question about how we're going to see new Hanso ads without new episodes of LOST has been answered. We received reports tonight of a new Hanso ad appearing on the ABC show Boston Legal with a link to the site called Retrievers of Truth at the end. Click the link and listen to the sound of Vincent fans rejoicing.

The jury is still out on if/how this site will relate to the next revelation on the hansofoundation.org site, but the ABC appearance is pretty strong testimony to its authenticity. Keep a close watch here as this site may come into play more heavily over the next few days.

Edit: It appears you can also enter your e-mail address to receive a newsletter from this site or you can enter the word "porter" in the e-mail address field to be taken to a "hidden" mock message board site at the same URL.
With perhaps a new clue from Persephone plus this site, I'm gonna have a busy night.

Well the Retrievers of Truth shows up on Genomic Advancement Page. You have to click on the mutant genes to find those words which appear in the xray below. Under the picture of the students and teacher is a place to enter a code. Which I'm still trying to enter.

http://www.retrieversoftruth.com/

This is a silly page sponsored by the Hanso Foundation about how golden retrievers can read minds. I like how the doctor is named Vincent. You have to sign up for the news letter in order to get what I think is clue information.

Spoiler for Newsletter E-mail:

You're about to enter...

First let's start this by saying, "thank you."

There's a word into which dreams can come true. This email is your
gateway to that word and more that will open your mind and your
consciousness.

Imagine a field - a field of yellow... yellow labs running free,
playful, and enjoying each other's company. But in their hearts they
are not complete. They miss an integral part of their being and the
thing that makes their existence complete. That one thing is the "word" for which we all search - mankind and labkind.

But first a story.

I was checking into a hotel and a dapper porter escorts me to my room.
As we're going up the elevator in total silence I decide to ask him
his name. He replies, "Mandrake Wig" and immediately starts to explain
the odd name, his German ancestry, and his mother's preoccupation with
botany. He ends the story by saying, "my friends just call me Manny."

We continue talking about our lives, hopes, and dreams as I'm getting
settled in my room. When he's done I offer a generous tip but he
refuses saying, "Let me give you a tip, a single word that will enrich
your life, as it has mine." I accept.

The next day I go to the front desk to leave a tip for Manny. They tell me no such person works there. I question everyone with no luck. I
think about what he told me and write down his name so I don't forget
it. As I write I see something in the letters. I rearrange a few and
create the words, "waking dream."

The word he gave me that day was - YOU.

Yours truly, Dr. Vincent "Wally" Bole



I tried to enter 'waking dream' under the picture but didn't get anywhere. Same thing with 'YOU'. Could be doing something wrong.

Ok not just product endorsement. When you look at the script of the
http://www.richerdeeperbroader.com/ site
which is mentioned on the angry Verizon website there is a odd word 'Parthenogenesis' located in it. Since I did not know what it meant I looked it up.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenogenesis

Why would that be on a Verizon website, right? So I used that word as the password and YEAH!!! Got something new.

if you click on "Canine Clairvoyance Facts" at the top, scroll down and in the very bottom left corner you'll see these words:

His name is Seamus or SAME US - "one of us."

Does this mean that Vincent (the dog) is one of the Others?

Nice catch avendia I spent time on the message board and posted the following below on another board last night. Note what I had to say about the Verizon site. Guess I should have investigated that one more thoroughly.


Spent some time out there.

At Retrievers of Truth

Enter your email address and you will get the following email.

Go back and enter the word 'porter' in the email address box. You are taken to a message board, MAN'S BEST FRIEND IS THE TRUTH. While the first Retrievers of truth site is sponsored by Hanso, this message board says 'subjugated by the HANSO Foundation'

You'll want to go out and read all the posts, but here's what I noticed first time through.
Names of board members (I think they all work for Verizon):

DSLerator - based on his posts, he created/owns the board.
Fiberoptician - male
BroadBandBeatnik
iobiSeeingYou - female

The revolution starts not with a bang but a whisper - 04/12/06
Started by DSLerator

Just some talk about how they have all started this board. The last three posts may mean something:
Quote:
BroadBandBeatnik
5:10pm Geek is the new Black... and Red.
Fiberoptician
5: 15pm So then Wednesday is black and red from now on?
DSLerator
5:20pm Wednesdays it is then.
So maybe there will be updates on that board every Wednesday? I have to remember to check.

I have a very bad feeling about this - 04/19/06
started by BroadBandBeatnik

Mittelwork visited their division. Some people think it's a photo op, DSLerator thinks it's something deeper.

DSLerator
10:23am Ok. First Of All. Have you no idea who these people are?? - if you click on people, it takes you to http://thehansofoundation.org/

DSLerator
10:30am How about this for some fun? Now this... (http://www.andyfoulds.co.uk/amusement/economists.htm) is art. I thought this was pretty funny.

What are they trying to hide right under our noses - 04/26/06
Started by DSLerator

They talk about possibly making their public board private and coming up with a password. Maybe one of these posts could be a password
Quote:
iobiSeeingYou
4:50pm Brush up on your Orwell. Peace=War, Good=Evil.

Fiberoptician
5:10pm If I was the Hanso foundation, I'd worry about my Feng-Shui.

The dog ate my board work. - 04/30/06
don't see too much here anybody else?


Pay no attention to that elephant in the room. - 05/03/06
They're just crabbing about Hanso

You'd be amazed at what you can find if you look. - 05/10/06
They break through the first clue on the Hanso site and see Persephone's hack message. They're not sure if they should trust her.

Man smart, monkey smarter. - 05/17/06
More crabbing about Hanso

Hanso in da house!!!! - 05/24/06
Started by DSLerator

Mittelwerk's in DSLerator's office.

The media is their weapon of choice. - 05/31/06
Started by iobiSeeingYou

Posting about Gary Troup's book

The gospel according to The DSL - 06/07/06

Conversation about how someone grew up

iobiSeeingYou posts this url:

www.richerdeeperbroader.com

I went out there and the whole site looks like one big verizon commercial. I didn't spend much time there, so there could be a further clue, but the growing amount of advertising in this game is becoming a real turn-off.


The last post says this:

Quote:
If you are reading this, you've found your way to the truth. Thank you and welcome. We seek to unite with like-minded people out there to bring an end to the HANSO Foundation and their evil schemes. This message board was started to create a circle of trust among a select few. Since then, we've discovered several suspicious activities surrounding our company that all point to HANSO.

Could be. So far, each person Vincent has been attached to has had a dreadful end. Walt got captured, Micheal became a murderer, Shannon got shot and killed. Did Libby and Ana Lucia have any contact? Actually, yes, Ana Lucia had a moment with Vincent and look what happened there. I'll have to watch the reruns to be sure. Which character is he hanging out with now? They better watch out!

I thought about this a bit more and I think I've changed my mind about Vincent being one of the others. Maybe he just knows who the next victim is going to be and so he brings them comfort before all hell breaks loose. An evil dog just seems...wrong.

i dont know i think that they might be gearing us up to nothing. you know lead us one way and go another. but this is what makes this show different, crazy, and one of the best shows on tv right now. This is what sucks you in. hopefully nextweek they will be able to do something with the website or a new commercial that will explain alittle better and help us narrow it down to what they are trying to say with all this.
