Good golly, you are absolutely correct. We are supposed to believe that the NG bought typewriters with multiple fonts and superscripting features built in way back in 1972?

Compare the suspect offering with another known TNG document of the same period:

Conclusive proof that the Selectric didn't do superscript can be found by looking at the papers of the designers of the typerwriter. They are available on the IMB website. The list of available letters is on the second page. No superscript "th" is available. Fogeries.

Why was Bush supposedly being ordered to take his physical in May? I thought the usual practice was to have the annual physical in the month of one's birthday (his birthday is July 6).

Sorry if this has already been discussed...I haven't read all of the responses.

In 1978 we used IBM Selectrics. To make everything fit into certain spaces, we had to hand-scroll and physically force the platen into strange positions to insure that OER's were done within boundaries.

That was my 2cents. (BTW, back then there was a "cent" symbol on the keyboard!)
