Big Jim,
     Your original approach and insight into an interpretation of the VMS shows
considerable thought and a great deal of personal commitment. You have reached deep
down into your personal experience and understanding of language evolution and
developed a method which you believe will lead to an accurate interpretation of the
manuscript. Thank you for sharing these ideas with us. What I have learned is that
it is not necessary to convince us that an approach to an interpreation is either
valid or accurate. This we would intuitively recognize and understand once an
indisputable translation is provided into a modern language that we can understand.
The only person that you need to convince on the method of interpretation or
deencryption is yourself. It seems that the harder one tries to convince others
that their method of deencryption is the correct approach to use the more sceptical
they view that individual's approach. We are certainly willing to voice our
opinions and recommendations but are not necessarily willing to learn a new
'language' along with all its grammatical complexities before we even begin to
realize an accurate translation of the text under study. It is not necessary for us
to undertake this additional learning. What needs to be done is to provide an
accurate translation in a language that we understand, simply, clearly, and
precisely. Even one complete page of text indisputably translated will be a very
good start. Dali did not have to convice those who viewed his art in his methods of
drawing for them to appreciate the artwork. What he created was new and original.
We appreciate and enjoy the art as it is presented. If we choose to study the
artist's intention and learn more about the science of his artwork, then that is a
personal choice. We would all like to enjoy our quest for an interpretation of the
VMS, but I do not think that we are asking to be convinced that any one method is
better or more accurate that another. "The facts will speak for themselves." We go
to movies to see the picture, not to see a documentary about how it was made. That
can come later. Thank you again for sharing your ideas with us. Hopefully, you will
be able to share with us undeniable and meaningful results. I would caution you,
though, to be absolutely convinced of your methodology, otherwise you may become
quickly discouraged and just quit. Be flexible enough to modify your approach if
you find that it isn't working to your satisfaction.

Regards,
Dana Scott
