To say a few more words about this: I know that it
is sometimes frustrating when one writes about
something that seems very promising, not to find
any responses from the list. This
does not mean that people ignored it or disagree.
Often people read it, need to think about it,
and I am sure that some people will have paid
close attention to this topic. However, often
it is not possible to decide one way or another 
whether one is convinced or not, and then not
sending a responding E-mail is probably the Right
Thing to Do.

My thoughts at the time were:
- problem: there are far more than 10 VMs characters,
  so what is the meaning of words that are composed
  of combinations? 
  + Is every word which is a combination of the
     number characters definitely a number?
- problem: there are several sequences of VMs
  characters - why is one particular one the key
  that lists the numbers? IIRC, the list was extracted
  of several figures (correct?)
- It is very odd that the Eva-l represents 5, not 4
  (due to its shape). That by itself does not mean
  anything, since it is a code, after all. But then,
  changing 5 to 4, many dates become much more
  interesting (14xx instead of 15xx). For someone
  who has not repeated everything you've done, it
  seems reasonable that it will be possible to
  pick selected numbers from selected pages and
  find astronomical events that happened on those 
  dates, also if Eva-l were 4, not 5.

These are the main thoughts that came up -
nothing solid one way or another. I did not have
time to really sit down and look very closely at
everything, and I did not want to send an E-mail
that has an overall negative tone, without having
looked more closely.

All the best,
      Rene
