just thought i'd remind all of you puzzle solvers of this little number Pink Floyd pulled...maybe it will provide more clues or maybe it's completely unrelated :)

"But perhaps the most intriguing clue to surface suggesting that the enigma is authentic came on June 11th, 2005 when the band agreed to re-unite for Live 8. Though sources did not report the agreement untill June 12th, according to the press the actual re-conciliation happened on June 11th. It is widely known among the PubliusEnigma community that Publius made his very first debut post on June 11th 1994 exactly 11 years to the day earlier. Some suggested this is directly related to the clue found on the inside of The Division Bell booklet which reads ELF-ELF which is German for 11:11. Though their are still many hard core Pink Floyd skeptics who would dismiss these clues as non-sense, many who are familar with the enigma say it is far more than a coincedence that the two events occured on the same day 11 years apart. Especially given the puzzling nature of the members of Pink Floyd.

To date no prize has been claimed, and the Publius Enigma remains unsolved."

Richard Wright has already debunked the Publius Enigma, admitting it was a ploy to boost sales.

It's odd that you bring Pink Floyd up because I remember that puzzle. Pink Floyd had a very popular puzzle and Tool does now too. Which really interests me is that in an interview with Revolver magazine Danny said this: "Even if they don't like the record that much, they know they're going to see the next best thing to Pink Floyd". Here's a picture of the article for proof: http://static.flickr.com/54/137207412_0c274d0129_b.jpg He says it in the middle column.

I may be totally off but I do know they both have puzzles ....and so does everybody else who reads this
