Yes, I've seen that article. It proved little more than that at least one of the machines (typewriters) was used in a dusty environment and that the ribbon hadn't been changed recently.

If you've seen the article to which *I* am referring, then you have missed the salient proof contained in it. The "t" is so distinctly different in it's several iterations, that it simply cannot be argued to have come from the same typewriter. No conceivable distortion of ribbon, paper, or any other conceivable typewriter mishap can account for the distinct difference in shape between one of the "t"s and another.

I am having difficulty finding the article, if you know where it is, do you have a link?
