I imagine, then, that The Killer (I'll use 'him, he' to describe The Killer) would use the same techniques of encryption that the Hardens uncovered. Using words like "KILL" provide decryptors with cribs.The proposed decryption of the 408 includes a line of junk, "EBEORIETEMETHHPITI". Lines of garbage interfered with the decryption process.How would The Killer have, in the space of 99 days, (Thursday, Jto Friday, November 7, 1969) come up with some entirely new cipher? I think, instead that he realized two things:

It seems very unlikely, upon some reflection, to suggest that the 340 and 408 codes are fundamentally different. October 14, 1969, Letter with Stine shirt-tail fragment.October 11, 1969, Presidio Heights attack.September 27, 1969, Lake Berryessa attack.

In fact, now that one can download zkdecrypto on virtuallyĪny platform, anybody, anywhere, can solve the 408. To explain - Dan Umanovskis' zkdecrypto can solve the 408 cipher in a matter of minutes. Pallavi Kanagalakatte Basavaraju's work highlights the problem. Thang Dao's master's thesis clearly outlines the problem with any sort of computational approach, and The 'supercomputer' cranks ominously, and does nothing, and then Craig Bauer rushes in dramatically with another guesswork solution.

That, plus a poetry-writing 'supercomputer' of unknown provenance with dramatic lighting gives a clear picture of what is to happen at the end. Instead, we have people who an average audience will take to be geniuses - young folk from Google wearing horn-rimmed glasses and the like. King, Thang Dao, Pallavi Kanagalakatte Basavaraju, Dan Umanovskis, Taylor Berg-Kirkpatrick and Dan Klein, were nowhere to be found. And some of the people you'd want on a 'dream-team,' particularly John C.

Were they using a Beowulf cluster? A two-rack BlueGene/Q? How many pflops? Inquiring minds wanted to know - and instead we got hysterically bad poetry. The computer itself was of some interest, and so was the approach this very intelligent team was taking. Their portrayal of CARMEL, the supercomputer which was going to tear into the 340, was silly, with blue lights behind the racks, scrolling Matrix-style text in which a dimly-outlined human face showed, and the like. I wasn't expecting very much from the History Channel's documentary their reliance on specials about the SS and Hitler's Germany convinced me years ago that they were devoted to entertainment, not education. I was, needless to say, impressed everyone knows about Knight's work on the Copiale Cipher. Knight, at the USC Natural Language Group, would be turning his profound knowledge and abilities toward solving the Zodiac Killer's 340 cipher.
