Back to the subject of Stephen Bax. Has he posted a document anywhere explaining his Voynich methodology?
He seems quick to claim some kind of intellectual kinship with Ventris and Champollion, but it remains far from clear to me whether or not this is justified. Genuine 'ninja' questions might usefully aim to find out what he thinks his specific approach brings to the Voynich community that previous crib-based amateur code-breakers had not already tried.
