This company is fishy at best. They have no actual "institute" that I can see... I found no physical address.. the phone number on the site is a residential line. The information on the website is VERY general and generic. I am VERY skeptical!
They are saying that they have a technology that can tell you what someone is thinking through their speech. For example, they analyzed Dirks comments on the morning show and concluded that he was thinking "Hide Rudy". It's almost like they walk around with a crystal ball in their brief cases. A little too Sci-Fi.. imho

But, if this company is in fact real.. it's very small still and is being run out of someone's home.

Part of me believes it's a plant and after Survivor is all over with we will be told it never really existed in the first place.

My Question is has Rudy been interview by anyone since he has left the Island? If not then there is no way this can be real. If they are going by episodes then it's just impossible since nobody knew who was gonna win until the last day on the Island.

No, these guys claim to have technology that can analyze a small portion of what someone says and tell you what they are thinking.
It was an interview with Dirk they reviewed.

Go to this address and about halfway down there is a taped interview with the company's founder about how they came to the conclusion that Rudy won. It's about halfway down the page.. the date is 7/26

Like someone else said here, this is fishy at best. I think everyone on survivorsucks and survivorblows needs to work together on this one. I can't post on ss, so if anything I say here turns out to be important (fat chance), post it over there too. ;)

There very well may be a huge spoiler hidden in these pages, especially in the "services" pages..there is quite a bit of language used that just seems like it might be a clue. Individually, these would all fit on a legitimate page, but I think there are too many to be coincidental. Here are a few examples:

<<Where a misstep could cost you Millions...full insight is critical. Protonesis empowers clients with complete knowledge so fully-informed moves can then be made. >>

take off the s and add an "a" before million, and we're talking about Survivor.

<<In acquisitions, suits, settlements, mergers, - is the other side telling you everything you need to know? >>

Again, alone this sounds fine, but just to humor myself, it's possible to see this as talking about the alliances that were so powerful after the tribes merged. If only Pagong had used Protonesis.. ;)

<<Touch-Free is the competitive edge that puts you at the head of the game...Their true market position, their strategic moves, you're put right into their head for a serious look around. >>

That's where I started thinking that there were too many subtle game references. It's still a stretch..a BIG stretch..but worth looking into, isn't it?

<<Does your company have information or product leaks that are costing you a hard-won edge? >>

Again, could be applied to the game..will the fact that Rich is the head of the alliance leak, thus costing him a final two vote?

That's all from just the one page (http://protonesis.com/services.html)...I haven't even touched the other pages. Other things that support this to be some sort of Burnett/CBS/Survivor spoiler/red herring/prank:

Other then the globe on the front page, most of the other globes clearly show the Western Hemisphere in such a way that if you rotated the globe 180 degrees, you'd be looking directly at the South China Sea. This wasn't my discovery, but someones on the survivorsucks message board (sorry I didn't remember who!). Also, there is a white dot on those globes, which could also sit right over the SCS if you follow the point through the globe.

"Finding" the Survivor winner was their first project. What are the odds of them picking the winner of a game show first over all the other more important things they've claimed to find out later?

As it is now 1 AM, and I have to go to work in the morning, I'll stop here. Most likely, this is not something set up by CBS as speculated by those on the SS Spoiler board, but with not a second of film to go on, it's as good (and at least as fun) as anything else we have to go on. No flaming me just because this makes no sense and ends up having no relevence!

One of the interesting things is that this "company" is supposedly (per their NIC registration for their Web site; I didn't check with the GA Sec'y of State) organized in Georgia, but the phone line and contact person are in Louisiana.
