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.
