But now, instead shifting each piece of the text, and comparing its frequency distribution to that of standard english, we compare it to the other pieces. We shift piece one 26 times, and use the chi test to compare it to piece 2. When the chi test peaks, we'll have aligned piece 1 and 2. Do the same with each piece of the text, until they're all aligned with each other.

Cool! This is a new technique to me!

AND, a wonderfully detailed description of the IOC, CHI and Kappa. Thanks!!!!
