Please forgive my slip. Actually, I intended to mean: the shorter word
average lenght of VMs vocabulary, when compared with likely plaintext
languages in a one to one basis for character encipherment.

I had already posted that on July 14:
"There are ten labels inside Kether (The N sephira) in f85_86
#10-oko*
#09-daiiny*|daiino
#08-docfhhy
#07-ofedy|okedy*
#06-ofary
#05-ofain
#04-opar*
#03-adairy|odairy
#02-dxar|alar*
#01-okory   "

I checked the appearing of those labels in the interlinear file, the ones
sided by a * appear in other places in VMS; the others have only that unique
presentation. "|" indicates alternate readings.

I was thinking about performing an ampler and more sophisticated research on
the conjecture that each one of the nine sephiroth in f85_86 may contain a
codetable that the VMs author used in an alternate and systematic way. There
are other brains in VMs list burning glycosis on the prospect of several
codetables. Stolfi's finding about the identity between the mean word size
of VMs vocabulary with a binomial distribution of 9 coin tosses+1 arouse my
expectations about that possibility. As Stolfi said, that fact "cries or an
explanation". I regret not being able to do that myself properly, and I am
trying to provoke an interest in what I consider to be a very promising new
line of research.

Thanks,
Jorge Aveleira
