	I've been thinking about something you
wrote me, which is now in my Historical 
Precedents document:
http://www.geocities.com/ctesibos/voynich/precednt.html
where you mention Vat. 1291 gr. , which has the 
astronomical diagram with the very Voynich-like
nymphs in the tubs:

	(Incidentally, I don't see the picture on voynich.nu, 
and can't find it on the Vatican site; something is
wrong
at your site.)

	If you were right, the VMs author was in Brescia and 
saw this very manuscript!  Does anyone else find that
as 
interesting as I do???
