Hi JW, The trouble with being right and pointing fingers at other hunters, is that one's opinion just blocks his mind from seing other possibilities and meanings. At least this is what has happened to me when I was Crack certanin about something.

If you read my Drake discovery on //TreasureHunt.MiningCo.COM under articles written in 1998, you see that I solve Drake's Nova Albion question and where he cache 72 tons of the Queens silver just by cracking a simple code that had elleded the finest historical minds for over 450 years. My opinion was an intirely different direction and still there is no credibility for my work because I am not a historian. But that's life. The athorities believe what they choose to believe, whether they're standing on the evidance or not.

The LUE is the most difficult code I have ever worked on. My findings were not like anyone has ever stated before. But this is the direction I went and the results I got were staggering. I solved the LUE only one way, But the LUE can be solved, I am told, by many other ways as well. I believe this, because I have seen other partial ciphers being used. The name LUE means nothing. But we have to call it something so the LUE is as good of a name as anyhing to me.

Be at peice sir and allow all participants the freedom of expressing their feelings the way they feel about it. The truth in time will come out. Perhaps in a movie? Richard Walburn
