Re: Lou Kruh, was Re: VMs: Interesting site

Jim,

Could Mr. Kruh be persuaded to approach Yale as a recipient
of the collection?  If successful, in the long run that
could benefit our efforts to understand the Voynich
document.

Punctuation DOES make a difference!

Lou Kruh is a friend of mine, also, and he is still active
in the
American Cryptogram Association, writing a book review
column for
each issue of The Cryptogram, and he is one of the founding
editors
of Cryptologia.  He is trying to find a good home for the
complete
collection, which he put up for sale relatively recently -
within
the last year, I think.  He wants it all to go to a single
place --
e.g. a university, a museum, or some other place where it
can be
kept intact.

I don't know of a more extensive collection anywhere, either
in
private or public hands -- he's really been thorough!

Reports of his death are greatly exaggerated.
