SPEAK YOUR MIND

"Does the distance one travels from center make one more free to move?"

"No. Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphor has two parts: form and interpretation. Of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom is being the bricoleur, the mason."

Ok -- we're playing around with a lot of theories, but we're not coming up with enough guesses. The way that the previous problem was solved was when Matt found "boomer," and then I found my name by ROTing through the letters, ie, Matt took a chance and just went and guessed something, then his guess triggered something with me.
We need, I think, to apply the same principle here -- we're thinking too much macro, and not enough micro. Here are the clues we've gotten so far:
Tycho "If I were rich, I'd see a real estate developer." He just added, confirming therm's point, that what we're looking for is "not in the sky."
Could be a map, a subway map, a bus route, an airport terminal? I've just checked out a few subway routes (us ones, anyway), and haven't found much.
Tycho's comment also made me think of Route 66 -- something that would elegantly combine his "real estate" clues along with Marathon, but again, no luck.
We can do this.
