Jim had some trouble understanding this, so here's a picture:
https://www.amazon.com/Cryptography-Security-Dorothy-Elizabeth-Robling/dp/
0201101505
The author's name is vertical, the title is horizontal, and they encrypt each
other by rotating the alphabet with 'A' being the identity. So in the 'B' row,
which is just below the 'A' row because Eli*zab*eth, "cryptography" becomes
"dszquphsbqiz".
