The Wrong Whistle

The Space Giants: Chapter 4

When looking for the Jade Key, you’re heading down the wrong path if you start to think Anorak’s referencing the tv show The Space Giants in the third line of his Quatrain. Miko’s summoning of Goldar via a “magic space whistle” has absolutely no relevance to the riddle…

 

Instead, think “Crunchberries”.

John Draper (alias Captain Crunch) was one of the very first computer hackers in the 70′s and self-titled “phone phreak”. Draper discovered that a whistle included as a Captain Crunch cereal premium delivered the proper 2600-hertz tone to screw with the antiquated phone systems of his day. This lead to him being able to take control of the phone lines and become a total underground bad-ass.
