I was unable to read the bit (ok, 5 pages) that was in Jordan's handwriting without more work than I was willing to expend.
I was quite struck by how uniquely American Jordan seems to have been (i.e.- that there's something of the national psyche that got writ overly large in his own, which would explain some of the compellingness of the place.

"Victor C" -> "Vic-Torc" -> Torque
ME -> MM -> Java
I still haven't heard any stories about frightening the natives....
