    Bin Laden had the last two keys. It's part of the treasure trove of info gathered by the Navy seal team. That's why they won't release pictures of him... He had them in both hands when there was a knock on his bedroom door....

    Are these found in random old and new posts or just new ones?

    How the keys were placed...

    Using the total number of posts as of about 9:30 AM CT today as the upper limit in a random number generator I generated 4 numbers. Checked the locations make sure they were in areas accessible by all and then placed the keys.

    As a hint, the floor is somewhere north of post # 1000. None of the keys are in Off Topic or Sponsor areas.

    This is worse than the loyalty club programs. If you only knew that spending $100 on whatever, got you all of $.03 worth of points you'd think twice. Still hunting for the key myself. My time is worth nothing :lol:
