 		[SOLVED] { SD5 / bookshelf.jpg & tranportation.zip}
I'll start with what appears to have been an easy one:




The books are in binary, black books representing zero, white books one:

Code:
011001100110000101100011
011001010111010001110011


It translates to:

facets

However, the translation appears to be unnecessary, because the binary itself is the password for transportation.zip, which contains Vehicles.jpg, a handwritten note describing details about some of the vehicles to be used in the heist, likely to transport the goods.

 		By the by, does anyone here have the ability to analyze handwriting?

I would think that we have enough writing to see if there is a positive match between virgil's notes on VKOC and the writing in the many hand-written heist notes.

I'm bleary-eyed comparing two of the inner circle notes to the above and found enough differences to feel comfortable that Virgil did *not* write it. His 'f' 'p' and lower-case 'l' are quite different. Virgil doesn't dot his 'i' as strongly. Virgil's handwriting is difficult to read. This one is easy to read.

On another note, given how unstructured Virgil's thinking seems to be, and how focused he is on Nisha, it's difficult for me to see how he could be organized enough to do all this.
