What the...

Poking through my downloads folder, I found this PDF file. It has a date-modified earlier than my ownership of this computer, so no hints there, and Googling on its filename returns no obvious clues as to its origin.

Strange. Anyone?

I should add: If it's from the RPG campaign I'm in and I'm so numb that I have no recollection of how or when I obtained it, either of the GMs may clue-by-four me at their discretion.

It is part of a larger puzzle, but it's solvable as a stand-alone item. (Let me know if you want to try more of the 2003 hunt... I can point you to the right starting point. Also let me know if you want hints.)

Oog... well, it took a while but I got the thing fully translated. The encoding scheme you used was similar to something I would have come up with -- that made things easier. I won't reveal the answer in case someone else reading these comments is playing around with it, but suffice to say all the sentences sounded very 'British'.

I doubt I'll work on the rest of the puzzle. This one part already consumed too much of my time :-) It was an interesting challenge though -- thanks!

Anytime.
