Well done Koen. Difficult interview given the narrow parameters in which Adam seems to have worked.
I'm bemused by the way Adam jumps straight to 'decipherment' as cryptographic. I wonder whether he actually studied the past century's wrestling with the problems posed by this object - including arguments for and against the written text's being enciphered.
I agree that book he mentions wasn't worth the ink and paper it used, but I do hope the three authors managed to make some of the money they hoped for. Save being a total waste.
