    My guess is House. Makes sense..he uses a cane and the caduceus is a medical symbol. My guess anyhow.

    it could be House if that symbol has anything to do with the mental health emblem.

    or...

    it's another of the Snakes On A Plane series.

    I think that is about the date the new health care bill is suppose to be voted on. I know that got pushed back until mid September not sure if thats it or not but seems right.

    Was just my guess. I know the health care package got pushed back until congress comes back in session in mid September. Personally I hope its about house I love that show.

    It was opened by FOX

    i dont see how it can have anything to do with the healthcare anything considering that 20th century fox owns and operates that URL.

    House is sounding like the best answer so far..

    Oh yea, talk about ROI, 10 seconds on tv, a little spooky music, a couple bucks to register a URL, and bingo, TERABYTES of traffic.

    just out of curriosity, i pulled the source code for the page, thinking maybe whoever coded it may have left a clue... nothing.

    The only thing that i found in the code, is that the timer is infact running down to a finish date and time, its not just open loop running down...

    'eventDate=9/21/2009 20:00:00'

    so whatever it is, is specifically scheduled.
