Kryptos : K1. What is the origin of the “palimpsest” keyword? Right, the discoverer of this (Nick LaMey, I believe) "Padded" them. An alternate algorithm is to just take the first character of some words and the sixth of others, with the exception of "DIGETAL" and you remove the need for the "E"s altogether. It's not obvious which words to use where and in what order however. |

Kryptos : K1. What is the origin of the “palimpsest” keyword? I can't seem to get linebreaks to work. Look at the 6th character in each group: EEEEEPOSITION
VIRTUALLY
EEEEELUCID
INVISIBLE
EEEEEMEMORY
INTERPRETATI
EEEEESHADOW
EEDIGETAL
FORCES
EEEEETISYOUR |

Kryptos : K1. What is the origin of the “palimpsest” keyword? One theory that I came across recently on the Yahoo! group is that it's possible to derive PALIMPSEST from the Morse by "padding" with the extra "e"s (and a tiny bit of hand-waving): ` EEEEEPOSITION VIRTUALLY EEEEELUCID INVISIBLE EEEEEMEMORY INTERPRETATI EEEEESHADOW EEDIGETAL FORCES EEEEETISYOUR` |

Kryptos : K1. What is the origin of the “palimpsest” keyword? I'm not concerned that it has any "meaning" just whether or not there is any other way to derive the keyword other than brute-force, from e.g. the Morse code. |
