    Zodiac Killer's cipher has been solved

    More than 50 years after the so-called Zodiac Killer first began terrorizing the streets of Northern California, a code-breaking team is believed to have finally cracked one of the killer's mysterious coded messages sent to the San Francisco Chronicle in 1969.

    Dubbed the "340 cipher," the message was unraveled by a trio of code breakers -- David Oranchak, a software developer in Virginia, Jarl Van Eycke, a Belgian computer programmer, and Sam Blake, an Australian mathematician.
    Decoding the cipher revealed the following message. It was sent in all capital letters without punctuation and included the misspelling of paradise:
    "I hope you are having lots of fun in trying to catch me
    That wasn't me on the TV show which brings up a point about me
    I am not afraid of the gas chamber because it will send me to paradice all the sooner
    Because I now have enough slaves to work for me where everyone else has nothing when they reach paradice so they are afraid of death
    I am not afraid because I know that my new life will be an easy one in paradice death."

    But wait!

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
