Individuals are idiosyncratic. And VMs interests are in an isolated corner of idiosyncratic. And still there are a range of interpretations from scientific to fantastic. Individuals have claimed / are claiming / will claim to be able to read the VMs text. What to do? Implementation <exactly>. Demonstrate the solution methodology both as to how it works and as to what it produces. If the VMs can be read, read it! Not all of it at once, perhaps, but at least a page or two, and the outer ring of White Aries.
Implement a new classification of proposed VMs solutions: those that have passed the ninja challenge. There needs to be a way to get beyond self-selection (self-promotion) to a more objective form of verification.
