     Yours truly found it, and it was not that hard. I must say that the choice of encryption algorithm was extremely clever, however. You will never get it from the script unless you are fluent in ebg13, so you might as well try to solve it the right way!

     Back in the old days, when people cared about decency on the Internet, it was decided that to keep people from seeing dirty words questionable material would be encoded in EBG-13. Nowadays it's just a technological quirk, however, unless by some freak of nature the CDA turns out to be constitutional, in which case we'll be seeing a lot more of SHPX and FUVG.

     This is getting silly. Many monks can read EBG13 without pressing buttons, and EBGisms are part of the monastic culture [1].

     >You yourself raised the encryption issue and certainly therefore know also that encryption keys used in firms etc. must be managed.
     
     That's the job of the IT people. The executives know nothing about it, and lack the skills to evaluate the strength of an encryption algorithm (heck, many of them can't decode EBG13, never mind something stronger).

     Sure hope they can spill/spell/whatever better'n this. Doesn't read rite, even in ebg13.
