[Panel Session] Cryptologic History panel Oct. 19, 2017

Voynichebombe... true about the term "forgery", it does not accurately describe the ms. as I see it, in my hypothesis... it is only one of the closest, most convenient terms to get the ideas of my hypothesis across. "Fake" might actually might be closer... because it does not "forge" anything just like it, anything that existed before. But hoax, fake, forgery, "homage", artwork... some parts of all those definitions would probably apply to what I think it is, as it seems to me to have elements of all of them. A mish-mash of sources, mixed with much invention and imagination, many inspirations, and possibly, different intended motivations for creation.
