We simply have followed the facts wherever they lead. And the facts tell us that Kevin Flynn Lives.I will be going through this website and posting my findings in a FlynnLives.com Viral Breakdown later today or tomorrow.In addition to FlynnLives.com, HomeOfTron.com was found via the tokens received by film blogs.
