[Now he's had more time to practice filters, he's trying one out. He's sure this matter has been brought up before at some point in time anyhow, so it's not like it's too sensitive. But he has to ask, since it seems like people never discuss it. At the moment, Mulder can be seen holding a small handheld mirror and tapping it absentmindedly into the palm of his other hand. He has a thoughtful expression on his face.]

...I bet it's been tried before, but... Has anyone ever had the barcode on the back of their neck examined? Is there a doctor in the house, or anyone with a medical background who's ever tried removing it from someone? ....Or maybe just someone in possession of a state of the art grocery store scanner to check it out? [What, YOU NEVER KNOW.] For that matter, can we be entirely sure they haven't implanted anything additional in us?

Aside from that, I'm almost starting to feel a sense of routine and normality, between my ongoing quest to commune with the spirits and now working on what's essentially becoming the Lucetian X-Files. I have some faint hope that documenting the experiments will give me a better understanding of this place. Although I would kill for a computer to type them out on. Uh... not literally kill, for the record.

A flood of newcomers means I get to officially upgrade my New Feather badge to the next level... [Warning! Warning! Incoming snark mode!] Welcome to paradise, everyone. The food is free, but the TV reception is terrible, the recreational activities consist of reality-altering experiments which will make you wish you were on reality-altering drugs, and the vacation staff running the place have a mysterious fetish for wings. Overall I give this resort a half star. You really should have gone to Disneyworld instead.

I've performed a few readings with my tricorder. I didn't get anything conclusive from it.

Tricorder!?

[Ahem. Excuse him a moment, he's always been a bit of a Trek fan growing up. But Mulder has gotten used to things around here at least, and the types of people who appear here.]

I think I may have heard of something like that before. That's a pretty good scanning device, isn't it? Hm... If that couldn't pick up anything definitive...

[ McCoy's fervently hoping this isn't going to lead into a "you're a fictional character" conversation. it's somewhat of a mood dampener. ]

One of the best. It's been outfitted with the latest technology, but it doesn't mean a damn thing in a world as advanced as this one and it makes sense it can't pick anything up.

I've always wanted one of those... [At least a couple months here has gotten Mulder used to things. Or there would be a lot more outwardly geeking out.]

Anyway. It's frustrating, when their technology corresponds to nothing else, on any other world. Still, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask. The tricorder probably doesn't pick up much during experiments, either?

Nope, it doesn't pick up on any unusual readings. Whatever they use to implement the experiments here, they make sure to be subtle about it. I never got round to checking the barrier with my colleague, but I highly doubt I'll get anything useful from that either.

I bet the barrier will be about the same. Its existence is just as aggravating...

They've been really damn careful then, to make sure that nothing falls in our hands which could pick up on or measure or give us any useful information on their experiments whatsoever.
