Cracking the Quicksilver Code

wka writes "Todd Garrison describes in detail how he solved the cryptographic puzzle promoting Neal Stephenson's forthcoming book Quicksilver, and the reward for his effort. Stephenson himself calls Garrison's story 'remarkable' because Garrison was completely unfamiliar with the system of writing (Real Character) used in the puzzle. Also, Stephenson notes that the system and its creator play roles in The Baroque Cycle."

cyrto breahing is for dorks? Wow, either your crypto is way too good for me, or your statement is incredibly profound, or possibly both. Just what the heck is "cyrto breahing" anyway? Is that some extremely advanced form of crypto breaking?

Thanks
