Anyone using the downloadable ciphertext for Exhibit 1 from the
Chaocipher Ckearing House should be aware that it contains numerous
errors. So do not be surprised if your deciphered plaintext suddenly
goes bananas.

James,

The ciphertext for Exhibit 1, as found on the Chaocipher Clearing
House, deciphers perfectly from start to finish when using the correct
starting alphabets. The one error introduced by the publishers in
"Silent Years" was corrected last week. Please download the latest
version and try again, and contact me (mosher(a)mountainvistasoft.com)
if you still encounter any problems.

You say there are "numerous errors". Can you please be more
specific? At what offset in the ciphertext does your deciphering
become garbled?
