John, you wrote;
"So, in my view John's theory as it stands is wrong, because no one else is
capable of duplicating the results."

To duplicate any result one has to do the work. But if one, like you John,
only believes that it is wrong than the truth will be believe but not the
truth.



Now is the "time to get hands dirty".

In my site  http://home.att.net/~oko/home.htm  I give step by step the
process of my decipherment. I believe it is transparent and by use of my
alphabet that is given, one can easily duplicate my steps. Obviously one has
to know Ukrainian language.

Ukrainian belongs to the Slavic branch of languages. Hence, any one who
knows Slavic language can follow my steps and read and understand in their
own language from 60% to 80% what is written.

I believe that in this group there are enthusiasts that know Slavic language
or are of Slavic origin. One does not have to know Ukrainian to prove or
disprove my decipherment. The rule is given and is transparent.

But if one does not know Ukrainian he has no choice but to believe in what
he believes.
