On August the 3rd I shalt give unto my friend's son for his birthday all those games that people say and condemn as trivia for I shall have no use of them and will play chess for a few weeks until I asketh for them back, for truly the world will seem to end

Well, they haven't been sloppy enough to allow easy access to their FTP server, and they haven't been sloppy enough to leak some vital clue to crack this thing open. People all over the interwebs are on this, and there hasn't been anything concrete to solve this. It's pretty tight, and I'm still scratching my head. The clue I remember is that it would change "your country", not the world. However, posters have been found all over the world, and why would they want people to "spread the word"?
I would also say IF this turns out to be an arg or whatever, we won't be upset. This IS a worldwide event. I personally like puzzles, so this has been enjoyable for me. I'll either say pretty cool or pretty lame when it's solved or 8/3/11 gets here (whichever comes first), but I can't agree with you that it is anything specific right now. There are still too many directions this thing can take.
One prominent American symbol is Lady Liberty. She is known as the ‘Goddess of Liberty’ atop the Texas State Capitol, the ‘Statue of Freedom’ atop the U.S. Capitol, and the ‘Statue of Liberty’ in New York harbor..Before beginning the statue of liberty project, Bertholdi was seeking a commission to construct a giant statue of the goddess "Isis," the Egyptian Queen of Heaven, to overlook the Suez canal. www.puritans.net...
In America, we call her Columbia. In England she is known as Brittania, hence British Columbia. In the past she has been known as Semiramis, Ishtar, Anat, Asherah, Isis, Juno, Minerva, Aphrodite, Venus, et al. Now, let's look at the goddess symbolism. She is known as a triple goddess, trinities relate to her. In the Tarot the 3rd major arcana is the Empress. She is symbolized as a phoenix rising and is known as the eye goddess. As Venus, she is symbolized by a shell and a pentagram.
