Re: VMS Root Morphology

["Dana F. Scott" <dfscott@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'll see if I can obtain some additional information on this herbal. If I can
interpret the associated Italian commentary correctly, it appears that it is
written in a specialized technical terminology ("una terminologia tecnica
specialistica") which might mean that it too is encrypted. Sound familiar?
Someday I'll need to take a trip to Italy.

Regards,
Dana
