Unsolved ciphers attract a lot of nut jobs. I am a moderator of r/codes (thanks for posting the other day!) and sometimes the solutions people concoct and post there have no rational basis. What are your best / worst stories?

How did you get permission to visit Kryptos in person? Do you think it would ever be possible to obtain permission to survey the coordinates referenced with ground-penetrating radar to see if there is a buried part of the sculpture, as the plaintext suggests?

Do you think that the PARASYSTOLE keyword is actually related to the solution, or is it a red herring? My impression is that this is one of the more important discoveries lately, but I can't tell if it should be taken seriously.

Has research into the history of the Berlin Clock turned up anything interesting? It does not seem particularly remarkable to me, having even visited it in 2017. Is it possible there is another clock that is being referenced?
