It's evidently identity to this group of buildings that large court yard, three court make it a group. See two inner court yards and yards .... three blockish buildings, squared, all the buildings in the group are. Steep roofs.

He's being kept very sedated or heavily drugged . # 66: Okay, let's kind of stay away from him. You're right, that may be the source of your fogginess is him. Describe your relative position of observation as you see this group of three buildings that you told me about. # 01: It's more than three, it's three court yards, ... ah .... um, ah .... I'm pretty much over, ... over them, 600 feet up ........ trying to orient myself to north and ah ..... it would appear that the line of the grouping of the buildings is roughly .... lengthwise, north to south, .... so the front of the building faces west. ... Trying to get a feel for the center of town. # 66: No, I don't want to spread out quite so far. #01: Okay . # 66: This group of buildings, you say, have some sort of a wall around it?

I wouldn't ... ummmm, it's hard to tell it, it's like mix of things, a hedge and fence combined or a wall and fence combined, something. #66: I remember now, you said something like a hedge, okay. Let us work, do you have enough information that you can kind of draw me a group of buildings with something surrounding like hedge? #01: Just a minute. # 66: (mumble). #01: Okay . # 66: Okay. Now, I need a north, south, east, west and I need the immediateness of the little bit north and a little south and I'm not worried about the compass north, south, east and west, I'm just worried about the four directions from what you call a group of buildings. #01: Okay. . . North is ah .... there's a clustered object, ah ... building or part of a piece of a building the looks like four cylinders squeezed together . Could be a collection of smoke stacks. # 66: Now, we're within what, 50 meters or- #01: Ah, . . no - - # 66: You're really close, right? #01: Ah ... a block maybe. # 66: Okay. # 01: South is a ....

Some are touching and some aren't. # 66: You said that there was some underline cribus that they're all together ? #01: Yes, it's like they have an identity or something, ah ... let's see ....... ah ... ah, it's sort of like they're ... ah, I don't know, it's like if you had a hotel complex that you converted into something, a learning or training place. # 66: A learning, training is okay. #01: .

The four round high objects clustered together to the north or what I perceive to be of the north of me, may not be, but north on the paper. The rocker shape with the closed "H" on the top to the south. A high large wall with a rounded edge to the east and a circle of horn shapes like air raid sirens to the west . And these are obviously symbolic in some sense, so they're probably a significant things, you know, it's a significant part of something else, you know, recognize more significant part of something else. # 66: Okay . #01: Now, that's all I want to say. # 66: Okay . Now, as we look at your drawing and your orientation, I want to show you some overhead imagery of this area and on it are some labels of suspected areas, which is fine, just remember, we are more interested in the possibility of a suspected neighborhood. It may be anything in and around this whole thing. I have a first picture here. You want to be drawing your attention, not to their writing and their ideas, but other possibilities of things that are going on. Now we have the things from different angles. #01: Yeah. That's interesting. # 66: Serpentine obstacle? # 01: Serpentine, because I was getting an impression of a spiral type design, or something very close to it. # 66: You know we have this whole thing here and let's not pay attention to the north arrow here yet. # 01: No, I'm not, I'm not going to pay attention to it yet. Let me look on this thing and see what I ... come up with here. I ah .... # 66: We have some different angles to look at too.

That's a very high wall and it might be what I was perceiving, over here, the horns, oh, what the hell that could be. I'm inclined to think it's that building from this picture. Are there other views? # 66: Yeah, fine. #01: Let's look at the other views here. That line is off a little bit ... What happened to the resolution, did they fuzzy them so we wouldn't know how good they are at it? # 66: Um, um. #01: That figures.
