This is
absolutely NOT an endorsement of all their claims. As far as I know most of
their findings may be unsupportable. They claim to have found a great many
significant letter and word counts in many books besides the many Shakespeare
works. Many of their counts depend on a method of counting where ambiguity is
present. It may still turn out that many of their claims, as far as the counts
go, are accurate, which might be interesting in itself. My intent was not to
assess their book but to look for good ideas. In any case there actually seems
to be a reasonable justification for a “Kay” alphabet since there are
reasonable clues to its existence. This is important because a discovered cipher
alphabet, predicted to exist, is likely to be far more credible than a somewhat
arbitrary one found by modern day decoders but without any reasonable basis to
use it, other than finding that it provided reasonable solutions.
This Kay
alphabet then would be:
A
B C D E F G H I-J K L M
N O P
Q R
S T U-V
W X
Y Z
27 28 29 30
31 32 33 34 35 10 11
12 13 14 15 16
17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24
(The ‘&’
and ‘et’ would be considered as ‘null’ values in the system.)
