Barry,

I think that was a specially modified machine meant for accountants.   
They love numbers and hate letters, especially if formed into words.   
So you hit the Figs key once and you can't get it back into letters  
mode.

That way, no one else can figure out what the accountant meant to  
say.  Normal for them.
