Good. We haven’t had a Voynich manuscript thread for too long now.

Actually, it has now been deciphered. It turns out, the author was crying at the time, and it blurred the ink. It turns out to be an endorsement of John McCain.

Where's the mystery here? I can read this text perfectly well after listening to just one Barak Hussein Obama speech. All you have to do is make a Cardan Grill of every known platitude in any Kenyan, Indonesian, or Chicago dialect.
For example: This page says," The plant on the right has been separated and divided far too long from the plant on the right. The money I save by pulling out of Iraq and stopping this senseless warfare against our misunderstood Muslim brothers will let me, as your President, unite the plants and get them moving forward together again in Peace, Harmony, and Brotherhood. And by the way if you don't agree you are a racist swine."
No charge for this sample. Send me the rest of the book and I'll do it for $500 a page.

It’s like the Democrat manifesto: it literally makes no sense, but you “can believe in it”.

This is one of the things that sparked my interest in Philology and Linguistics.

Decryption is necessary before election day, as we should have no lesser evil to vote for than Cthulu, the worm itself.
