Re: (gulp?) fold the VMS...?



Hi all :-) 

 If I may, (gulp - don't shoot the messenger :-)

 I would still like to suggest the FOLDING KEY (I know - i KNOW) sorry
but this is driving ME more ~nuts~ than you!!! ES to blame!! (ha.haa)

Thanks to Jim Reeds I have seen MORE of the effort here (1991) that is
actually pretty "effortless" I found on his site a page by Robert
Firth http://www.research.att.com/~reeds/voynich/firth/01.txt that has
on it's next to last paragraph QUOTE: 

"Finally, look at the document. I
could not write English cursive this well, this consistently." 

end QUOTE / (ref: NO errors etc..)

Dana is right (Firth too!) The Images went on 1st!
AND the "script" for the images is related to the PAGE it is on!

I do however - disagree with Firth on the _above quote_.. (nothing
personal Robert)... but being 1 of 12 ~Touched~ (yikes - yepper).. 
(ha.haa) 
I found the EASIEST thing to do (me a dumby too) was to WRITE the
script ... I CAN write OUT anything you like in ~Folded Key~ It flows
amazingly smooth - very nicely - "VERY Elegantly IT FLOWS!" 

I sent Nick Pelling a fax last week before his vacation now 
(a hardcopy of 5 day after ES) and noted
RE-reading it I actually mispelled "Fox" in my example of _english_
(vms NOT) " The Quick Brown Fox jumped over the lazy Dog " whatever.
(that was $$$ costly Denver to London 4 tries (ha.haaa))

ES? VMS? Nor I did NOT ERASE but continued as: think the FLOW here:

"The Quick Brown Fhx FOX jumped over the lazy dog" 

~THIS~ is the _most logical_ way when you "GET the FOLD(ing)"


Hope this helps someone out there,
ES said "THIS (vms) was for _ALL!_" 

Best to you & yours
