    Ah, Ren, I think you meant "bupkus." You're typing with an accent again, go easy on the carrots.

    I can still remember the sequence... YL with a thick Spanish accent, obviously on a tape being repeated...

    One Two Three Four Five Six Seven
    Six Eight Three
    Six Eight Three

    Pause, rinse and repeat. For several days.

    No idea what they meant. And they never hit for me on the Pa Lottery, either.

    Radio Havana in the off hours, 5 number groups usually in Spanish. Of course you have no idea what they meant, you're not supposed to know spy code.

    It was a Spanish accent, but it was in English. So probably not the Voice of Castro.

    Very hard to crack spy numbers. They use a key but only once. After the message the key is destroyed along with the ciphertext and the plaintext. Only weakness is if they make a mistake and reuse the same key. Otherwise its almost fool proof.
