Obviously the recepient/sender wasn't worried about being marked since a transmission over a phone line can be traced. Had this been a covert opp, they would have received the message via a shortwave numberstation.

Every grouping of five here, with the exception of 17000, shows up in the value of pi taken to 1 million places.
