Archer - the mathematical distributions of the "letters/words" in the MS
aren't encountered in language but are quite common in card games, dice
throws, casino slot machines and so on.
----------------------
Is this true?
Both ends of that statement cover a lot of territory. The first part
would be difficult to prove. I am not sure what is specifically meant by
"mathematical distributions" but there is the possibility of producing
many series with dice and cards. I have been piddling with dice, myself.
Being "quite common" is not necessary but evidence would be interesting.
If successful with dice (by some yet undetermined measures), I will not
have proven the VMS was constructed by such a method. Far from it. Also,
there are other possibilities than ordinary script and gambling scores.
It is a type of statement with which I would neither agree nor disagree.
