Indeed. One of the troublesome things with the KSR is that its
runic alphabet is somewhat unique and the spelling conventions
don't confirm with any other text.

For an analogy suppose that we are archaeologists in the 27th
century. A good number of 20th century English texts have come
down to us but all records of the first decades of the Internet
have been tragically lost. Then we come upon a purportedly ancient
document having sentences like this:

1 4m l33t h4x0r 4nd g0t m4d sk1llz ph33r m3!

What do we do?
