This popped into my head this morning. Curious if it
is too obvious how it "works". I'm standing too close
to be able to tell, obviously.

Looks pretty cool. It wouldn't be as obvious if they were randomized and not in order, I think. It starts looking really cool when you get into the 3rd row and on.

The first row gave it away pretty quickly to me. After 3, and more random, I think it would have been tougher.

I like it. Together and in order, it's kinda easy to see that it's sideways numbers. But when you put these into words (1=a, etc) I think it will look pretty neat and give us something to decode. Will we be able to send for the decoder ring thru the mail?

If not given a "heads up", and not put in...alphabetical order, it may be more difficult to decipher. Say, if this had been the Kryptonian language in Man of Steel....
BTW, JB, did you work up an entire Kryptonian alphabet?

If Gerry hadn't said the answer right away, I'd probably be scratching my head over it still. It does look pretty neat.

Yes, tho purely transpositional, like this one.
