Scott Tucker asked me to post how many experiments I ran with Caesar cyphers
in my original post. Those I posted are all I did. I had the computer make
a random sequence and then looked at the sequence to come up with a Caesar
cypher which would turn it into a meaningful phrase. Before critics raise
the idea that I designed the Caesar cypher, I did! It merely is a special
case of the more robust Vigenere code which is capable of turning any random
sequence into any meaningful sentence. A Vigenere code is a very flexible
transform.
So, I would ask, when looking at a random sequence of letters, how do you
rule out the concept that it was really designed by a devilish spy?
