John D. Reid posted a genealogy cyber-quote one week ago on his Anglo-Celtic Connections blog that was an intellectual challenge. I'm completely out of blog posting ideas today, and with little time to do a lot of research, so I'm poaching his idea.
Here is a famous quote about genealogy:
UZDQD .. NQD .. UHP .. FNCUEBK .. JDYXDCUC .. HD .. SNB .. REGD .. PXQ .. SZEDOQDB. .. PBD .. EC .. QPPUC .. UZD .. PUZDQ .. EC .. HEBKC. -- .. ZPOOEBK .. SNQUDQ
This is a letter replacement code puzzle - you have to figure out the right letter that replaces the letter above. For instance,
GENEALOGY might be
KYRYQCPKE in a certain code (not the one above!).
Please put your solutions in Comments! Don't look before you try to solve it! Who is the genealogy super-sleuth?
Have fun!
