[split] University of Vienna Voynich Manuscript seminar

[bi3mw]

Side thought: whenever an academic does something like this, I always pray that they won't get flooded with correspondence from Voynich theorists. I don't mean like you guys, you show enthusiasm and interest in what they are doing, which can only be a positive thing. But there are others...

This brings me to the following question: Pippal's students are supposed to explicitly contact experts ( "Presentation: Slides, integrated: an interview with an expert" ). But how can a novice judge if he / she is really dealing with someone who could be called an expert ? There are a lot of "experts" out there who only follow one theory, their own, and don't care much about background knowledge of the VMS. A student could easily fall for such people.
