		Publius - who may or may not be a member of the band - first began leaving mysterious messages this past summer in the midst of a Pink Floyd discussion on the worldwide computer network known as the Internet.
		There was some speculation that Publius was out to mock Floyd fans for their penchant for seeking deep meanings in the band's music; others felt that the whole thing was a record company plot to drum up sales of The Division Bell.
		While Publius' posts are cryptic and melodramatic - the classic signs of a net crackpot - there's plenty of mysterious fodder surrounding The Division Bell to fuel his fire.

	Pink Floyd and the Publius Engima
		In the years since the Publius Enigma was first announced on the newsgroup alt.music.pink-floyd there have been numerous theories advanced about its purpose and its solution.
		I believe that the enigma is a word puzzle, created by the the author and contained in the messages posted at that time.
		Publius posted several messages during his brief visit to alt.music.pink-floyd, but many of them were reposts or consisted of general discussion.

		Publius may be a reference to the greatest General who ever lived, Publius Scipio Africanus.
		Not only was he a strategic genius who never lost a battle (defeating the much more famous Hannibal and ensuring that Rome would triumph over Carthage), but he was a humanitarian, a protector of the oppressed and one of the few lovers of Greece at the time.
		Thanks for the info… it matters to me. As for the Pink Floyd heads, they lost interest in the enigma years ago I just thought it was great that 11 years to day, Floyd are back with their almost full line-up.

		Publius was the pen name used by the authors of the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison." Check out the system's home page or a Washington Post story.
		This means that an adversary eavesdropping on the network segment between the publisher and the Publius servers could determine the publisher's identity.
		So, Publius can't defend against that sort of attack, but assuming the publisher does indeed manage to get his data published anonymously, perhaps through the use of anonymizers (which is what Crowds is) or encryption like SSL, his anonymonity cannot be broken.

		I got to thinking about some of the items presented in the Leap of Faith topic of publiusenigma.com and some things came to me. I started by working through the tildes in the third Publius post.
		Next, I noticed that, if you turn the original Publius post Dated 11 June 1004 at 16:51:16 UTC on its side and outline the body of the text, you get a third degree function (mathematics again) or a function defined by the equation: 0=AX^3+AX^2+AX+B

		I just want to take a moment to give credit where credit is due and acknowledge those who have dedicated the last decade to the birth of this concept.
		The first "enigma" to grab noteable attention over the internet began in 1994 just after the most recent Pink Floyd album release titled "The Division Bell".
		While the true origins of what we refer to as the "Publius Enigma" have yet to be formally acknowledged by anyone including the members of the band themselves, our efforts continue to this very day - 11 years later.

		The Publius Enigma is the story of an anonymous Usenet poster connected to the band in some way that claimed that The Division Bell album held a very tangible and real prize.
		one of the popular rumors has it that during the time (1994) that "publius was posting to alt.music.pink-floyd, pf's drummer, nick mason was playing around with computers and posted the messages himself, of course there's also held beliefs that the person was a stage hand, a CIA agent...
		anyway, to somehow credit the idea that publius was tied to the band was that in july of that year there was a "mysterious" message of "ENIGMA PUBLIUS" flashed during one of their shows, and those words were part of some of the artwork for the aMLOR mini-disc released later that same year.
