The first lake party of the year is looming large in your mind. It's been since last season that you've seen Gilbert. Perhaps his mother's predilection for Laudanum and humiliating you has waned over the last few months. Oh ho! What's this!? Gilbert's dogsbody just passed a letter to your sister! Upon opening it, you see that not only is it in Gilbert's own sweet hand, but it is in code! It must be important! Can you decipher it before the party!?
Below is a quote from a famous person encoded with a substitution cipher. Each letter has been swapped for another. Today's hint: I equals M.
"YSIN BNSBEN DJEW YLVD JKSTD VD, KTD YISWVRX PNYVR XSD IN DLPSTXL IZ GVPYD DAS JKSPDVSRY." - LNENR IVPPNR

Last week's answer:
"It's odd that Abraham got shot at the theater. He was always too busy to see a show. It was usually me in that dark box with a man's gun shoved in the back of my head, if you know what I mean." - Mary Todd Lincoln

Last week's answer:
"I've found that marriage is like a slot machine: you just keep at it, thinking one day it has to pay off. But at the end of the day you're alone and drunk in some place where nobody cares." - Billy Graham
Notice: Last week's cipher contained a typo resulting in the intended word "of" coming out as "on". The Swarm regrets the error and will strive to prevent this kind of thing from happening. The responsible party has been terminated. On a cheerier note, fully half of our respondents submitted answers that accounted for the typo and corrected it. Keep up the good work!
