From Wikipedia:

Semiotics, semiotic, or semiology, is the study of signs and symbols, both individually and grouped in sign systems. It includes the study of how meaning is constructed and understood.

Do we have any drawings that Tachy's made? I can't think of any...

Maybe, but semiotics in itself might be a clue

What program are you using to try to open this?

I Drew anagrams into "wired." Bree just told us that Tachyon taught her how to lay trip wires.

Also Drew is capitalized. Why? There's Dr. Drew from the loveline puzzles.

My sister might have a Finnish translation... But I wouldn't consider it as reliable source, because the translators even changed her name, so for me Nancy Drew has always been Paula Drew.
