1. Sounds like the inside of a deep freezer

:D

[Birthmark]

2. Okay. That's strange.

Look at the top photo. On the left side, there is something that looks like a wall, with a 90-degree angle. Weird.

3. Do I see whitecaps crashing into a shoreline in the top photo?

Wonder what that 'ocean' is made of? In a 311 mile an hour wind, even an ocean of tar might get waves of some kind.

The audio, while indistinct, really gave me a sense of presence. Brrr!!

Then again, it's below zero where I am, so it doesn't take that much imagination right now.

4. did anyone else try playing the sounds backward

you can barely hear "kkk**l is the antichrist and g**rg* is his b**ch" couldn't really make it out but something like that

[Ilsa]

5. Yeah, I heard that, but not from playing this backwards.

I thought I heard KKK**l whisper "G**g* is my b**ch over and over during that public appearance on November 3rd. I also think it is replayed a thousand times at night while he is sleeping. And I swear it flashed on my TV screen a few times during commercials.
