On the latest Gameinformer article (http://gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2010/03/24/Aperture-Science_3A00_-A-History.aspx) 'Aperture Science: A History' they state the timeline below as follows.

1957 - 1973 – Mostly shower curtains.

But on the Aperturescience.com (http://www.aperturescience.com/) with the login of cjohnson/tier3 when viewing the notes section they state the below time line

1957 - 1975 – Mostly shower curtains.

:confused:

Eh, not much of a big deal, maybe 74 and 75 were a bit less shower curtains.

I find it curious that aperture science website is specifically mentioned in the article... I wouldn't be suprised if someone logs in sometime and finds themselves looking at some new material...

Login: anything you mind can muster
password: portal

type in "notes" + hit enter = notes = success

then type in "thecakeisalie"

it will show you video footage and have a short written dialog, hit enter and it shows you some weird spreadsheet with prices and quantities.

good luck

The big screw up that I can see in the dates is that GI is showing GLaDOS locking the AS staff in in 1998 and shrtly after the Resonance Cascade occuring. But we know from Gordon Freeman's letter stating he was hired it is at least 2000 (200X or 2000-2009) when the RC happens. Something does not match up. sm

1976 – Both of Cave Johnson’s kidneys fail. Brain damaged, dying, and incapable of being convinced that time is not now flowing backwards, Johnson lays out a three-tier R&D program. The results, he says, will “guarantee the continued success of Aperture Science far into the fast-approaching distant past.”

Interesting...

I didn't pay much heed of it at the time but now with those images from Game Informer (http://gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/03/05/april-cover-revealed.aspx) I think this might be something, well interesting!
