This is the *easy* version of the columnar
transposition cipher. After you strip away this
message you should find , using the available
software tool, that there are 185 characters
in the message. The words were read into a
completely filled rectangle by rows, the columns
were then permuted, and written out by rows.
 This cipher is worth 20 points
with additional points to the first four who
solve it. I would recommend that you use the
*new* version of the column transposition tool
posted on 2/17.
 The cipher in the encryption of a
portion of song written by Woody Guthie and
performed together by Bob Dylan and Joan Baez.
