Real madness trumps the simulated one

With all my recent work on Markov chains, I can't even approach the level of lucid madness embodied in the Toynbee Tiles. Savor the rich psychotic disassociation proffered below:

«NBC attorneys journalists and security officials at Rockefeller Center fraudulently XXX the "Freedom of Information Act" all XXX orders NBC executives got the U.S. federal district attorney's office who got FBI to get Interpol to establish task force that located me in Dover England.»

Note that the Xs above replace damaged sections of the original "manifesto." Perhaps the author of the Toynbee Tiles has decoded the equally incomprehensible Voynich manuscript. Like bees to sweets, I'm irresistibly drawn to this kind of utter nonsense.

I remember seeing a couple here in DC years ago. One was near Dupont Circle, and the other somewhere else downtown. They've been removed or covered by repaving long ago. I thought they were the work of a local wacko until I saw one in New York and found the web site some time back.
