  • Hey I just wanted to say, thank you for sending me down the rabbit hole of both of these texts. Fascinating!

    Regarding the Voynich Manuscript, and to be fair to the person you’re responding to, with no current decipherment, there is a good possibility it’s a hoax.

    Churchill acknowledges the possibility that the manuscript is either a synthetic forgotten language (as advanced by Friedman), or else a forgery, as the preeminent theory. However, he concludes that, if the manuscript is a genuine creation, mental illness or delusion seems to have affected the author.

    Also the Codex Seraphinianus is much newer and self-admittedly describes an imaginary world in an imaginary language.

    Anyway, thanks again for the Wikipedia adventure. :D







  • Don’t messages sent by you come back in a list together with any received ones?

    Oh wow, you’re right! Somehow I totally missed that. Even Thunder displays sent messages.

    So you’re right. You could get all incoming messages from a specific user by passing creator_id but you just couldn’t get all the message you sent to a specific person without getting everything and filtering them.
