The Modern Forgery Hypothesis

[proto57]

I respectfully ask everybody to use an actual quote rather than periphrases, so every proposition is easier to check. Ie. I can't see anywhere in McCrone's report that the conclusions about inks are an "educated guess" as said by You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., nor that (quote) "2009 McCrone tests revealed that this last page marginalia, with a possible "Pox Leber", is written in the same ink as the main text of the Voynich" as said by You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.. If this was said in another reference, please quote the reference. This would make the discussion less tiresome due to the continuous need to check every affirmation. It's already hard enough given it's impossible to just Crtl-V images in the posts   . Thank you.

Mauro! While I understand your concern in general, and I also agree these are important distinctions, I feel I did actually fulfill your requirements by clearly stating where I quoted the McCrone report, and then differentiated that with the places I was quoting myself... such as the conclusions/opinions I had, based on McCrone's word.

But yes, I do agree this is very important, and I have always tried to do this, and I apologize if I thought I was doing it, and failed in this or any previous case. Rich
