Great point. I'd be willing to bet that whoever "did" this document is some young smartarse who doesn't remember life before computers, and has never seen a typewriter.

Remember, there are a lot of people in the country who've never even seen carbon paper. They just sort of assume that Xerox machines have been here all along.

Or dittos. What a mess those were!

My granddaughter is still trying to figure out how I could have "lived" without a TV. Now that's old!! Wait till I tell her about the ragman, horse and buggy and all!!

Not me, I'm still adapting...

The superscript on the text 187^th would have been impossible to make using a typewriters. A 1970's IBM selectric could do superscript by moving the text up half a line, but it could not change the size of the font.

I also don't recall that typewriters had the ability to make "smart quotes."

You're right. This was done by some wet-behind-the-ears individual. The young don't know squat. About ten years ago, I was having trouble getting a ball point pen to write and declared at the dinner table that I was going to start using a fountain pen. All four of my teenagers looked up and asked, "What is a fountain pen?"
