Just heard him discuss the docs with an expert named ?Shriver? Great stuff. Shriver also vouched for the credibility of his colleague, the expert who has said that he is 90% sure the docs are fake. This keeps getting bigger and bigger.
Is it time to demand Rather's resignation?
The Centering algorithm exactly matches word processor. Would be VERY difficult to do this with purportional typewriter of 1972!
BUSTED!
Was the document created in MS Word?
Nobody knows.
But if it matches the word-wrap of MS Word exactly, odds are it was done on a machine that used the same paragraphing algorithm as MS does.
Which wouldn't be unusual - nearly all typesetting systems today, and the best typesetting systems for quite some time, have used a variant of Knuth's algorithm.
Which was first published in 1981.
Adobe has used Knuth's algorithm for 15 years, now. Microsoft for I don't know how long.
So it's not at all suprising that a word-processing or type-setting system would layout the text similarly to what MS Word would - if that word-processing or type-setting system had been developed after 1981.
It's close to an impossibility that a word-processing or type-setting system that predated 1981 would do so. Knuth's was the first to consider the layout of the entire paragraph when determining line-breaks. Which is what the typesetters had always done.
But no automated system prior to 1981 did so. Particularly no typewriter, no matter how sophisticated.
And no typist would manually lay out a paragraph while they were typing and break where Knuth's algorithm would break, except by random chance.
How about a couple more "bigger"s"?

Movie on 'Clinton-Kerry deceit' debuts
'Mega Fix' premieres at American Film Renaissance festival
Posted: September 8, 2004 1:00 a.m. Eastern
© 2004 WorldNetDaily.com A film that implicates Bill Clinton, John Kerry and others for policies that allegedly led to the attacks of September 11 will debut this weekend at the American Film Renaissance festival in Dallas.
"Mega Fix," produced by WND author and columnist Jack Cashill, pulls together pieces of what the filmmaker says are deliberate decisions made by the Clinton administration prior to the 1996 presidential election that downplayed Islamic involvement in attacks on the U.S. and heightened the boldness of terrorists, culminating in the 9-11 attack.
Says promotional material for the 90-minute movie: "Cashill leads the viewer from Oklahoma City to Dubrovnik, where Ron Brown's plane crashed, to the Khobar Towers in Saudi Arabia to the destruction of TWA Flight 800 off Long Island to the Olympic Park bombing. As Cashill proves beyond dispute, these are not multiple conspiracies but all part of one major political fix, the mother of all fixes, the Mega Fix."
Though the federal government to this day claims the TWA Flight 800 disaster was not terror-related, Cashill notes it was John Kerry who, shortly after 9-11, inferred in the media that the plane's destruction was a terrorist act. A member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence in 1996, John Kerry made no public comment about the fate of Flight 800 prior to 9-11.
Cashill, a Ph.D. in American studies from Purdue, brings together information he used in writing his two latest books, "First Strike: TWA and the Attack on America" and "Ron Brown's Body."
However, it was not until he collaborated with "The Third Terrorist" author and former Oklahoma City TV reporter Jayna Davis on a series of WorldNetDaily articles about the OKC bombing that Cashill began to connect the dots between these seemingly disparate events.
Says a statement from Cashill: "[Clinton and his staff] turned Ron Brown into Martin Luther King while suppressing the investigation into his death. They swept the Khobar Towers disaster under the rug. They ignored all Islamic trails to the Olympic Park bombing and hung the innocent Richard Jewell out to dry until the election. And most spectacularly of all, they transformed the shoot down of TWA Flight 800 into a mechanical failure."
As WorldNetDaily reported, the film festival, taking place Sept. 10-12, aims to screen pro-America, patriotic documentaries to serve as an alternative to the Sundance and Cannes festivals.
Also making their world debuts will be two documentaries targeting leftist filmmaker Michael Moore – "Michael and Me" and "Michael Moore Hates America." Seventeen films will be screened in all.
