Global misevent Y2K? Economic collapse housing bubble of 2008/2009 = 16 years ago. Data stream = algorithm?

No. Don't focus on the story. The clues are in the words in the story. 5 clues that will locate a small town.

that is sound logic, however. don't focus on the story itself. focus only on the words. the clues are in the words. 5 clues that when combined in order will locate a small town in the united states. a few posts up i posted the 5 sentences that each contain one clue.

lol. that is interesting. it is weird watching it try to solve it. but as with several others it immediately went down the wrong path and just never recovered. When I first started reading it I thought it would figure it out.

now, get back on track and solve this. yall were getting warm earlier.

no one clue is more important than any of the other five, but without all five in the order they appear in the story, you will never locate the town. Once you have all five clues, you will have to google them to find the town. Its really that simple.

ai should be able to solve this.

I will say that the clue that gives this puzzle away is a zip code. the numbers are spelled out. 5 numbers. one in each of the sentences that i posted. Read that carefully, "one number spelled out in each of the five sentences that I posted".
