What I don't understand is how it gets all these other words once you put the letter in..

Guy Fawkes eh? He tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament (UK) November 5th 1605. He was caught, tried for treason and executed. Every November 5th, we have Guy Fawkes night/bonfire night where we set of fireworks displays around the country.. Interesting his name should be listed there..

It gets these words because people have previously PUT THESE SENTENCE FRAGMENTS INTO THE GENERATOR. That's what makes this so fucking weird... Someone had to first physically type these in there to make it show up in the result. Then, anyone who puts the numbers, letters, or words in and searches for results - will have those sentences show up. Hence, you could send a message by knowing the number you wanted, then typing the sentence in there, then coding the number you used into something like a tweet by using capital letters. The recipient then takes those capital letters and types them back into the generator and - THE SENTENCE COMES UP with the intended message.

I can only guess that they didn't think anyone would discover their comms methods.. They must have built this up over some time..

It's older than Christ... the joo's have been using this for millennia.
