Paul is certain that there is a Nolan who walks the floors of his building. He believes he has heard his voice:
"One day the three of us were down in the server room, and we all heard a man's voice calling my name, 'Paul'. We looked around to see who was in but there was definitely no one there. Yet it was a voice within the server room, it wasn't someone outside".
