SIA Notebook (formerly TCN Notebook)

## SIA Notebook

The SIA Notebook

The SIA Notebook (formerly known as the TCN Notebook before the re-branding) is the official notebook for all SIA operations, activities, subject profiles, and basically acts as a physical written version of this wiki. It is a red, college-rule notebook with 70 pages. It has all the information required for identification written on the front cover, back cover, and front left page. It has ID of 690 (which is written on the front and back covers) and the object itself is Classified Level 6.

The notebook has been in the SIA catalogues since June 10, 2022, when it was first established and put into service by SIA agent 2006Pontiac. Since then, SIA agents and members have been writing things in it across that period of time. As of November 30, 2023, it is approximately half to two-thirds full. This is not a concern for the SIA, as we have other notebooks ready to turn into SIA Time Capsules.

The notebook serves a dual purpose as a time capsule, stating on the front that, once full, is not to be opened until A.D. 2050. This is almost 30 years since its commissioning date. We will have to trust that SIA agents and members stay true to their word and do not open the notebook once it is full, until 2050. At such time as the year 2050 comes around, and this wiki is still on the Internet, we will publish a notice onto this page stating that it is now OK for all SIA agents and members to view the notebook. **Please note that if you are not an SIA agent or member, you will not be permitted to access the notebook or write in it.**

## Formatting guidelines

The SIA has clear formatting guidelines for how to write in the SIA notebook. These have been erected to prevent the unauthorized adding of pages and to make sure that we have the exact date and time that something was written in the notebook. Please follow this format:

* Put the current date and time in the very top section of the paper. (Example: November 30, 2023. 9:41 AM.) A time zone is not required, but you may specify it anyway.
* Put the SIA verification symbol (SIA ✓) to indicate that the page you are writing is an official SIA record. If you do not put this, your paper will not be catalogued by the SIA and deemed invalid. Note that in the past, you were instructed to write TCN ✓ because the SIA was formerly called TCN. Although it would be invalid to write TCN ✓ today, all pages that bear TCN ✓ before November 20, 2023 are valid.
* Write the contents of your paper. If the contents go over to a second page, repeat the same header information as you put on the first page, except write "Continued" below the header information. **We ask that you do not include contents in the notebook that violate any of the SIA' terms, regulations, or that are below Level 6 Classification, unless you are using Invisible Ink.** Any violating papers will be removed from the notebook and placed under further inspection.

## Trivia

* The SIA Notebook has the Pontiac and Chevrolet logos on the cover, for some strange reason. SIA agent 2006Pontiac was the one who put them there, so we'd have to ask him.
* One of the records in the notebook, "Operation Parrished Raddish", is written in Invisible Ink, because the operation is classified Level 4. This is the only way to avoid being prosecuted by the SIA for including such a high-classification record. See the details on Operation Parrished Raddish here.
* The first dozen pages of the notebook (and some more scattered throughout the midsection) are math notes. They were written down by 2006Pontiac and some other miscellaneous SIA members around 2021 and early 2022. SIA agent 2006Pontiac annotated some of them with snarky comments in the blue pen.
* One of the records is entitled "Prescribed on DiskStation Day, February 2022". The record page is math notes from the day upon which the Official Storage Station of the SIA (the DiskStation) was set up and brought into commission. The math notes were in very bad handwriting and were obviously written by someone who was rushing...to check up on the progress of the file transfer on the DiskStation.
* There is a series of pages around the middle which are TrailTesla logs. They contain all the runs for TrailTesla sessions from around April-May 2023. These are not classified in any way and frankly the SIA won't give a [expletive removed] if you leak those logs.
* There are three SIA Calendar pages in the record for TrailTesla Log 2 (April 29, 2023). These are the **Three Notable Pages** that are mentioned on the SIA Calendar page on this wiki. The words are: "Cocoon" (March 17, 2023, which contains an LIP reference),"Boniface" (May 4, 2022, which is the day of the onset of CWII), and "Variegated" (February 3, 2022, Lilyan Parrish's 9th birthday).
