The man is still considered alive, but skin, nerves, and flesh continues to peel off. There is major improvement in many areas. [paragraph break] In previous trials, subjects would react poorly to Element 999. Symptoms included: Anger, aggression, desire to hurt themselves or other subjects, continuous hunger (although they could not eat with no stomach - this I believe only worsened their starvation altogether), and immense strength. However, Subject 428 - who is now held in Cell 2 of my chamber - shows none of these symptoms (and is the first subject to do so). [paragraph break] I will continue to report my findings to Mrs. Wellington as time progresses. [paragraph break] For now, I am very happy with the trials. [paragraph break] Dr. DeFoe[paragraph break]February 18 1973'";

	say "There's nothing new to read on the note."
	
Instead of talking to Skeleton:
	say "'What- how?' You stumble over your words.[paragraph break]'Yeahhhh, most people have the same reaction.' The Skeleton's mouth moves fluently with his words. You're stunned and amazed at the scientific impossibility behind it. 'You don't look like the rest of them, though.'[paragraph break]'How can this be?' You ask again.[paragraph break]'How can what be? How could I be talking? Alive? Moving?' The Skeleton animates his forearms and legs looking as though he's doing his best rendition of a square dance. 'I've been experimented on, good sir. Real nasty stuff. The name's Jig. Jig Jameson. Otherwise known as Subject 428.'[paragraph break]'What allows this to happen? Why are you still here and animate?' You ask.[paragraph break]'No, no, no. Answer my question first. Who are you and why are you here?'[paragraph break]Reluctantly, you reply, 'Alrighty then, Mr. Jameson. Let's just say that I'm an investigator. I'm here to find out more about this strange town you're home to.' Although Jig has less of a lively face than a real human, he still manages to look surprised at your response. [paragraph break] 'You seem like an interesting fellow. Can't say I've run into anyone down here like you.'[paragraph break] You stand beyond the bars of the jail cell staring into the blank skull of Jig's. Your mind swirls with questions."
	
Instead of asking the Skeleton about "Cottonwood":
	say "'Do you have anything to tell me about this town?' You ask calmly.[paragraph break]'Can't say much, I'm afraid. I haven't been awake in years - I think. I know this place is full of secrets, though. Not sure I'm wealthy in that kind of knowledge.'[paragraph break]You continue to think."
	
Instead of asking the Skeleton about "the red door":
	say "'How do you open the red door?' You question, hoping Jig has the answer.[paragraph break]'Ah! That I can tell you.' He reaches down towards the ground and pulls out from the dirt a red key. 'This here I swiped from the head scientist when he was still around. Figured it might do me some good one day. Here.'[paragraph break]He reaches his bony hand through the bars and drops the red key into it.[paragraph break]'Are you sure?' You ask.[paragraph break]'Yes, kind sir. Of course. I believe it is more useful in your hands than it is in mine.'[paragraph break]'Thank you, Jig.' He nods his skull in approval.";

Instead of talking to DeFoe:
	if the player is in Memory Tank:
		say "You reach your hands to the glass and gather the attention of Doctor DeFoe.[paragraph break]'Oh, good. You're awake.' He walks towards the glass. You struggle to keep your eyes open, still recovering from whatever drug you were given. 'I'm sorry, Doctor Wellington, but you leave none of us any choice. We have been trying with you for months to recover your memory and yet, despite all of our efforts, you have not shown any progress.' He paces across the floor behind the other scientists before walking back to the glass. 'What is going to happen now is we are sending into a kind of cryo sleep - a technology that you, yourself, developed all that time ago. It is a way of restarting your brain - giving it a jumpstart, if you will. Don't worry, it's plenty painless. However, we will be monitoring your brain activity - we can use the readings we gather to see if any memories from your life have returned. If they have, we will wake you up and return to monitoring your progress in the real world. If no progress is seen, then... well... let's just hope there's progress.'[paragraph break]You try to speak, but no words come out of your mouth. He notices.[paragraph break]'No, no. I'm afraid you cannot speak, as there is nothing left to be said. I hope to see you very soon, El. You were the best of us.'[paragraph break]DeFoe nods to a fellow scientist sitting in front of the flashing lights. You begin to feel the tank you're in move and shake. Suddenly you watch the faces of the scientists in front of you disappear slowly as the tank presumably lowers into the floor.[paragraph break]Your eyes close quietly.";
