After hearing that Bush still didn't know whether he was alive,
Osama bin Laden himself decided to send Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game. Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain
coded message:
370HSSV 0773H
Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI. No one could solve it so it went to the CIA, then to NSA.
With no clue as to its meaning, they eventually asked Britain's MI-6 for help. MI-6 cabled the White House:
"Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."
