- The taunts are unworthy of this newsgroup.
-
-
- What is being rejected is:
-
- 1. any attempt to get readers of this group into a "here's the
- ciphertext, try to break it" game
-
- 2. any alleged cryptosystem which has no key (and is therefore
- useless)
-
-
- If you (and I doubt there's any friend) want to have the system reviewed,
- publish it.
