Arthur Salvatore WoW comments??

In the meantime Mr. "Porter"(yea, right) is having a party at his place and some of the brighter luminaries on this site are all passed out. I bet you he sprayed them all with RR as part of his diabolical scheme. If I recall he posted his system once and its value could have Switzerland swimming in Flittchens for a hundred years. I wonder if he has amassed his fortune by taking other peoples systems? Are Detlofs' Jadis amps still lying in the strasse? I wonder what Mr. Groesse is up to? Maybe Detlof is the least of our worries. Somebody should do a little recon over at Porter's place. Me? I'm gonna hide my equipment.

Albert has just now finally fallen asleep (gripping a Swissair flight schedule in his fist, I dunno?), and we're laying out for a giant AUDIO GARAGE SALE in the driveway.....we'll use the money to have another side of Canadian bacon sent down along with some kegs of brew.....y'all come.....this partay ain't over yet!

Alberto Bonaporta is of Sicilian decent. He belongs to the US branch of the family better known as BONAPARTE, of Napoleonic fame. Hence, the worldwide connections. Alberto moves, as is his wont, in exalted circles where it is rumoured (got this from a swiss chamber-Flitchen) that RR stands for "Release se*R*um". It's a secret formula closely guarded by the family, and well serving for over 200 years! The immediate effects, upon skin (or other)contact, are to release psychological inhibitions; hence the *better* sound (it's the skin contact that does it, not the vinyl cleaning), sensuous Flitchens', and complacent soldiers in the Napoleonic Wars. Just rumours, ofcourse...
The butler in that same household indicated that a company called Pfizer had recently broken the family's secret formula and produced its own concoction unashamedly commercialised under a different name with no credit to the originators! He *thinks* it is sold in solid form, but couldn't supply the brand name.

The game is afoot, methinks. And, we are all in very deep waters! If Slawney manages to infiltrate the prison further and Katharina keeps watch on the media side, maybe we'll get to the bottom (Thunders, we're yer Flitchens?) of it all.

Oh, BTW: I managed to locate Detlofstrabe -- but couldn't get near D's lodgings. There's a 24 hr watch around the block with cops sporting modified Uzis und Kalashnikovs. My quattro-fils didn't get me anywhere nearer than a mile away.
What do you suggest I do? Please help!

Gregm you are a fountain of historic knowledge. I did a little digging at the Italian Patent Office. In 1799, days before the Battle of Marengo in Italy, a Corsican alchemist applied for a patent of a compound called "Sciofiere Timpani" which loosely translated means "Release the Eardrum". It was described as a tonic to permit people to hear better. In the Battle of Marengo Napoleons forces captured the alchemist and extracted the formula. It worked all to well and drove people into a sonic nirvana much the way Detlof fell. It is now I remember in History class there was speculation as to why Napoleon was really exiled as it may have been for health reasons. Anyhow the alchemists families, with their Corsican ties continue to make the drug and sell it illegally. It was soon overshadowed by other opiates and wasn't heard of again. Funny thing is that the alchemists name was Gustavo Borodino Arturo Salvatore. Coincidence? Gotta do more digging. Slawney and Katharina, keep your eyes peeled, your ears to the ground something is happening.

Wirehead, does this mean that Alberto Bonaporta and G B A Salvatore could be related?? Please keep on digging! We're close to unravelling a mystery that's been kept behind closed doors -- I can feel it in my bones...
