THE
BOTTOM LINE
|
Osama Bin Laden sends George
W. Bush a coded message to let him know he is still
alive:-
"370H SSV 0773H." Bush is baffled. Condi Rice
and her aides and even the FBI and CIA
can't decipher it. So they ask Britain's MI6 for help.
Within a minute MI6 replies:-
"Er, tell the President he's holding the message
upside down.". |
Whilst this site is mainly dedicated to the 9.5mm movie film
gauge, introduced by the French Pathé company, it is not
connected with the current 'reborn' Pathé companies.
