Braille 'the world's first binary character encoding'? 

When I first found the article alleging this I altered it simply because the writer appears not to have heard of geomantic figures. I wake up this morning to find that, in the space of my few hours of sleep, a contributor called Petri Kohn has submitted a discussion article entitled 'occult nonsense' and the article has reverted to its original inaccuracy. Whatever we think of occult practices, the fact remains that the geomantic figures are a binary code just as much as Braille. This is therefore skulduggery and POV gone mad, but I have merely placed a 'factually disputed' notice for the time being.
