    Seven digit numbers are also used to represent patents.

    but arent those numbers corresponding with G A T C? even if theyre not, the ? would make an odd number in the gene code. there's all sets of 4 not counting the ?.

    There are also 18 letters in the alphabet before S.

    Just some more information.

    Here's the amount of times each number appears:

    0: 16
    1: 15
    2: 3
    3: 7
    4: 1
    5: 6
    6: 2
    7: 2
    8: 2
    9: 2

    There are twice as many ones and zeroes as any other number. That might mean that they're of special significance, or that the thing the numbers represent tends to have those numbers more than others (like how years would have more 1's, since half of them start with it).

    what if the ? represents a set of 4 numbers?

    So does that mean that sets of numbers = to tracks on the album? if so then the ? represents a set of numbers.....?
    4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42! :p

    sorry i was just making a reference to LOST and the numbers....

    So most likely it's related to album tracks, although I guess it could be like history or something.

    Gah, I'm still confused.

    I know that with the second clue referring to the song Saviour, it's easy to believe that the numbers refer to the tracks on the new album. However, I'm not ready to rule out the other options mentioned, because these guys seem like they would love to lead us astray. Could Saviour mean something else besides the song title?

    Also, has anyone noticed that on the stamp in the upper right corner of the album, the letters G A T C are there, the letters used to represent genes?

    I don't know what this could mean, but maybe something.

    Another thought:

    Saviour is the English translation of the Spanish name Salvador. I'm sure we all know Salvador Dali's influence on El Cielo.

    lots of good brainstorming... but at risk of sounding rude..

    I think focusing on old CDs is slightly a waste of time...

    Live at the filmore / el cielo... great music.. but doubt it will help us in the slightest

    still confused.

    Following the genetic code logic

    On June 18, 2009 09:58PM PDT

    I'm just following the train of thought from earlier posts about genetic code; all the numbers have their own genetic codes, and here they are. I will try to find out what else they all have in common later.

    all protein coding genes found in homo sapiens
    1072 - Cofilin (CFL1)
    0100 - Adenosine Deaminase (ADA)
    0150 - Alpha-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRA2A)
    1315 - coatomer protein complex subunit beta 1 (COPB1)
    1038 - cerebellar degeneration-related protein 1 (CDR1)
    1000 - cadherin 2, type 1, n-cadherin (CDH2)
    3300 - dnaj (hsp40), homolog, subfamily B, member 2 (DNAJB2)
    (Saviour)
    6011 - G protein-coupled receptor kinase 1 (GRK1)
    6138 - ribosomal protein L15 (RPL15)
    3945 - lactate dehydrogenase B (LDHB)
    9321 - thyroid hormone receptor interactor 11 (TRIP11)
    2515 - ADAM metallopeptidase domain 2 (ADAM2)
    0150 - Alpha-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRA2A)
    0117 - adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide 1 (pituitary) receptor type 1 (ADCYAP1R1)
