	* [[~~Dinah Autoresponse~~]], the ~~response one received if one emailed dinah@projectsyzygy~~.~~com~~

			The site also contained some hidden clues and teasers to keep people occupied and interested. A hidden message asked: "Do you want to spend your life selling sugared water, or do you want to..." a famous quote which is completed by the words "...change the world?" The [[Dinah Autoresponse]] was received from players who emailed dinah@projectsyzygy.com, an address hidden in one of the print adverts for the site.
