Vanessa is the person Romeo met. I suspect we have another character, and someone who is NOT going to be helping.

I feel confident enough that my suspicions which I mentioned earlier are correct to tell you now:

Romeo is about to hook up with/get caught in a really bad looking situation with Vanessa, and all hell will break loose. That's the short version. I'm trying to think of all possible actions I can take to react once that inevitably happens. I'll go over his stuff again anyway, just in case the WMG that he is Pyramus is correct, though I doubt it.
Normal people are the easiest to manipulate. Too smart and they have an annoying tendency to catch wind of your plans, too dumb and, in the words of a certain pirate, "You can never tell when they are about to do something incredibly...stupid."

Fits the character. Romeo only loved Juliet based on Ppearnces. At the beginning of the play he said he was in love with Rosaline. The reason he was at the party to meet Juliet was beause he was trying to game his mind off of Rosaline.

My initial response is, "Dude, what the fuck is going on!? What the hell, you ass!"

But I leave the reactions to others with a cooler temper.
The voices in my head tell me that we saved the world. However, they also told me that George Clooney's face is on the dollar bill, so... meh. The voices are more fun, anyway.

It's also apparently an Echo, so we should probably try and find out where he means. Keywords seem to be Franklin (related to books), Mulberry, Park, and Cathedral.

We have no idea, apart from that they're at a college, in a fraternity/sorority.

Given that Franklin seems to be associated with books, specifically writing them, it may refer to Ben Franklin (the founding father) as he's the only well-known Franklin I can find off-hand who is associated with significant writing. He also describes his surroundings as having tomes lining the walls, so maybe a library? Possibly part of the college, or maybe a separate building?

Cathedral, Mulberry and Park seem to be descriptors of nearby, so there might be a park filled with Mulberry trees nearby, as well as a Cathedral?

Just my initial impressions and thoughts.

Sounds like he's in a library.

Guys. Google Baltimore library. Baltimore's city library is on Cathedral Street, which intersects Mulberry and Franklin. That's our best bet.

Isla seems to be the closest to it. Also, there are parks around the library, most likely. That's what I got from it.

There's a Park Avenue, too. Looks like there's one city block being surrounded by Park, Cathedral, Mulberry, and Franklin. I don't know if the library's there, but something is.

In the block surrounded by those four streets is the Maryland State Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped.

There's also the Enoch Pratt library and the Innovative Wellness Solutions. I think the city library is the best bet, which would be Enoch Pratt.

Someone help me find it on the map: put a yellow Echo marker or something. I'll see what I can do.

Anybody near Baltimore with LAYAR willing to check it out? Did we ever get someone in New York to check out the Plaza Hotel?

Do you know anyone with a smart phone, also let's move this discussion over to the Layar thread.

Can we go ahead and put Romeo and Juliet on the map? I assume they'd be in the same place as the echo, in Baltimore.
