I love this quiz!  I'll throw it at my friend, though.  In real life,
these cryptograms can be tough, because you don't know if it's
english, and if it is, you don't know the order because of the 5 by 6
representation.  That's the way I'd change it up, anyway.

I'll assume it's left-top to right-bottom, and see if he can come up
with something that works using frequency analysis.
