All Things Considered, April 21, 2006 ? A sculptural cryptogram at the CIA's headquarters that has intrigued people for years may have flaws in its design, says its creator. For more than a decade, professional cryptologists and amateur code breakers have been trying to decipher Kryptos, an encrypted sculpture at the CIA headquarters in Langley, Va.
But it turns out that the artist made the challenge a bit more complicated than he intended. Melissa Block talks with James Sanborn, the sculptor who recently realized a mistake in the piece, and Elonka Dunin, a cryptologist who maintains a website on the sculpture.

Audio stream, for anyone who wants to listen to yesterday's "All Things Considered" segment. I had to grip my desk to keep my hands from shaking right before the segment, I was in such "fan-girl" mode. I was actually being interviewed by Melissa Block, wow!

Elonka :)
