notes: 'Published by the owner before the gate existed. Read directly: Henderson (1889) in OCR text. The 1586 forgery, the
  French copies'' holdings and the contested-authenticity positions rest on Henderson or on the Q-001 page and were not each
  re-read; the NSA account was not read (nsa.gov blocks this environment). Computed results were reproduced from the published
  code. Headline status is draft.'
