Whoa!, I won't even ask you how you figured that out!
I just happen to have a utility program sitting around on my PC from the bad old MS-DOS days that will translate a file written in hexadecimal into one written in ASCII. I don't remember why I ever needed it but when I saw the discussion about that "code" I remembered the program ... and sure enough it was still there. So I just fed the text to the program and it spat out what the ASCII text was ... it was just a cut&paste job really.
