[PUZZLE] Blue Stone Message (from the HoO Seminar)

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I made a really decent recording of the message (I have a voice recorder that I hooked up to the phone, so there's no static). I don't know how to post it to the Web, but if someone knows how or wants it emailed to them, let me know (by PM).

The audio is pretty bad. Someone should try different texts with a voice synthetizer and compare with the audio to find the closest solution. Acrobat reader has a built-in reader for instance. I'm sorry i can't do it now, I might try later today if no one does it before.

Here is one online site that does speech generated voices from text (kind of fun): http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

You could try uploading it to a file host like this one.

I think we should relay it to DBJT&S just in case, because at most they'll just ignore it. But i'm thinking this is maybe more for us, because the 'beneath the blue stone' seems to be directed at the people who showed up for the seminar.
Talk about fan participation

I'm not even going to try on that audio...I'm just getting the same stuff you guys already have and it doesn't make sense to me.

I could be wrong, but I think maybe the voice is not computer generated, but a real person's voiced recorded, and then modified by some computer program effects.

However, if it IS computer generated, then some vowel sounds may be pronounced wrong.

fat clown named cid might be fah-gluen numb acid

or something like that, lol

That's possible, Q. It doesn't have the same joltiness as alot of those voices do from parsing pre existing rules together.

The fact that kate/cake (I heard take, but that doesn't make sense...) is dragged out and there's a pause makes me think of song lyrics for some reason....

I tried to google some of the phrases in different ways, but came up with nothing.

I didn't come up with anything either, except an absurd theory as to where the note is refering to....

So I've been listening to the message over. the second line almost sounds like taped instead of Kate. I dunno, it's all really distorted. I'm going to listen some more

Could the "hall of ponies" be the name for the place they were?
Return to the same location? There was no other place that the attendees went.
VoyBoy, what was the name of the place the event was held?

Also, I hear "Tomorrow main or shine."
