If it is, then there is way too much here for me to analyze by myself.
This picture was apparently up on the HansoFoundation site, but not for very long. It was taken down quickly.
I *DID* blow up the letter in the lower right and attempted to transcribe it. Can someone please check my work ? Also, does anyone want to take a stab at "filling in" the missing pieces of the letter ?
Notice the logo.

Was Zanzibar where Joop was housed ? Would a "leviathan from the Zanzibar facility" look a whole lot like yet-another-icon-from-literature/films....King Kong ?
Other thoughts on the letter's contents?
I will post close-ups of various areas later (unless someone tells me its a hoax in the meantime ;-)

Does "Not her kid ! -- ARROW" mean that Claire was taken to the Arrow bunker and tested somehow. And it was thus determined that SHE, not Aaron belongs in the middle there with Walt. Other theories ?

So much to deal with here...
There is one more letter, which I haven't seen before. I looks like the letters we have seen before´exchanged between Per L. and Dr. Candle. But it has a different date...

So, is THAT the anticlimactic answer to the riddle of the numbers. No wonder we have been told that the origin of the Numbers will never be revealed. That's because they took the latitiude and longitude of the hometown of one of the writers and put the numbers in ascending numerical order.
42 23 16 and -84 15 00 became 4 8 15 16 23 42
Now, they are trying to say that the original site (later rejected) for the Dharma research facility was a small town just outside Ann Arbor to tie it to the show.

If genuine, it offers a lot of food for thought.
After spending hours co-ordinate tracking on Google Earth, I had come to the conclusion that combos of the numbers parsed in various ways could point just about anywhere you wanted (South Pacific, Central African Republic) and had given up on that train of thought. Now Michigan may be significant. Back to Google Earth...
It looks like "the numbers" are all represented by the playing cards, with the possible exception of 8, which I don't see. My monitor display is very dark, so I might just be missing it.
4 of diamonds Ace + 5 of diamonds = 15 Ace + 6 of spades = 16 2 + 3 of diamonds = 23 4 + 2 of hearts = 42
