Frank Fans, make sure to decode the latest message this weekend.
Babes, this is your last weekend to prepare your entry (it’s just a picture and a short statement, for pete’s sake).
Everyone else, at ease.

First place! What do I win?
It’s not the essay that’s the problem . . . it’s finding someone to take the picture. If I can shanghai someone into helping me by Wednesday, I’ll definitely enter.
I certainly hope everyone has decoded the message by now. Either with that prog or with the JavaScript page.
God help anyone doing it by hand.
Well, I can’t decode the message because I procrastinated on signing up, so I don’t have the one-time pads. Sigh.
same here… frank, i apologize for biatching and moaning a few comment posts back about not being in the fan club, i waited too long and it didn’t occur to me that i could still sign up. However, i figured it out… i signed up. Is there any way i can get the pads? if not it’s okay, but i wonder if you could provide us a way to access them.
Thanks in advance!

I signed up but never recived any pad!! There’s no way I’m doing it by hand
Cynic:
If you live somewhere between New Jersey and Southern Virginia I’ll take your pic.
krakatoa, is that anywhere near texas?
hehe…no, fraid not SarahK. If the competition were held off a couple weeks, I could do that. I’ll most likely be driving cross-continent sometime in the next couple of weeks, with all kinds of nice toys of varying calibers.
Good chance my next job will start in a few weeks in San Francisco of all places, but regardless of employment, I figure to visit lots of friends around the country.
oh well, i’m not so good with geography, so i thought i’d ask. 😉
the cross-continent driving is so much fun, isn’t it??
aye! First time was on a motorcycle for 7 weeks. This time will be a little more comfortable, although probably not nearly that long.
Something for the limey.
BLIMEY!

ya know, the term “one time pad” is kinda gross. you should change that to something more masculine, like umm, well I dont know because I’m a girl.
Frank didn’t make it up, it’s an accepted code term. I think. I read it in a book, anyway.
Although, Frank, if you wanted to be creative, you could come up with a new name for it.
Yeah, like “One Time Code Tampon” or something.

I could call it a Vernam cipher… unless you’ll find innuendo with that too.
Blogging is the next generation of the Internet. If you’ve got something to say that interests somebody else, by golly, then there you have it! It’s not about search engine rank or advertising, either. It’s about word-of-mouse, and presentation. More here
