If today wasn't today, I'd say ain.dy.teey is as easy as "one two three"!

Betreff: VMs: Example of a simple cipher in the VMS...?
Hi everyone,
Please don't get too excited, but I think I ~may~ have found an example of
a simple cipher embedded in the VMS! I kept coming back to one particular
line on f79v in the balneological section (the page with the animals
drinking from the pool at the bottom)...
<f79v.P.15;H> yteedy.qokeedy.qokai!n.olkeey.cheokain.dy.teey.qokai!n-
...and it suddenly struck me this morning that "...ain.dy.teey..." might be
the key! I've assembled some of the rest of the cipher, please try this
out, see what you think...
a A
c Q
d I
e O
h U
i P
k T
l N
n R
o E
q S
t F
y L
However, I don't currently believe the rest of the VMS is in the same
simple cipher, though, which I find quite mysterious... interesting! :-o
Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
PS: anyone prefer randomisation? I like following on other leads... :-)
