Greek Influences in the VMS glyphs?

[Mark Knowles]

This is circumstantial evidence, but taken together, perhaps the VMS creator had some exposure to Greek or adapted some ideas from Greek scribal conventions to invent the VMS glyph-set. The glyphs are mostly Latin, but some of the concepts appear to be Greek. Many Latin scribes and some university students (probably those studying the classics) had a basic familiarity with Greek characters even if they didn't know Greek.

You say: "This is circumstantial evidence". As far as I can see it, in fact it is no evidence at all. Again you haven't included a single image containing a character from a manuscript other than the Voynich to illustrate the parallel. Preferably in the case of a suggested commonality you should show examples from a few separate sources. The reader shouldn't be expected to take your theory based on the evidence you claim exists on it's own. If you say a specific glyph can be found in a variety of given sources then you should be able to illustrate these examples. It is completely unreasonable to say the reader should study lots of sources so as to figure out which characters you might be suggesting are related.
