I wasn't motivated enough to solve the cipher originally, but Jim's comments provided enough of a lever to solve the puzzle, after which I retrosolved the cipher. Looks like the key starts with 'The matrix is...', but there doesn't seem to be enough to leverage it further and I couldn't find a suitable matching quote in a quick search.

Anyway, the decrypted end result (rot-13d and reformatted) is:

'N cnve bs cbjreshy fcrpgnpyrf unf fbzrgvzrf fhssvprq gb pher n crefba va ybir.'

You're right!

Could you send me an email describing exactly what you had to do to crack the number portion (after you solved the cryptogram)? Thanks. I'm curious.
