== "Wreckage" equals classification? ==
The first wreckage/shard pair has "gallows" as the wreckage. In that opening statement, we also read: "Whether or not you agree with what was done to the informer after we intercepted this email..." implying they did something bad. They likely killed, (maybe they hanged?) the informer. The second successful wreckage/shard pair has "gasoline" as the wreckage. In that shard, we find a mother who cannot get to her child in part because her old gasoline-only engine seized up and she couldn't complete the mandatory child-rearing classes she was assigned. We currently have a wreckage, "sickle", that lacks a shard. If sickle's a reference to Communism, then perhaps there's a clue somewhere around Be The Hammer? --[[User:Mr z|Mr z]] 13:11, 14 March 2007 (PDT)
== Hints in URLs? ==
The images unique to the gasoline/uuu891 page all begin with "rb5x1zzz". This is too long to be a shard if all shards are 6 characters. (That seems to be a common theme, across both The Mailstrom and [[U.S. Wiretap]].) But is that the case, or is just a randomized filename to make it harder to find through brute force search? --[[User:Mr z|Mr z]] 13:11, 14 March 2007 (PDT)
