Character entropy of Voynichese
#71
Only very few people are fully aware of the implications of the statistics, of which the entropy is only one, but an important one.

It is exactly because of this that, for the last decades, people have been trying to translate the text by simple substitution (or something very similar), and come up with meaningless text.

This will probably keep going on.
