That would be because the typesetting algorithms were created in 1081 and used byeveryone. Not to mention that the Windows printer drivers control the output to the printer.

Another blogger noted yesterday that the "th" lined up perfectly when you printed to paper, but not when you used a screen capture. Such differences are to be expected.

I hate to say this, but one of the reasons magazines use Apple computers and Quark Express is their ability to exactly match screen images with final printout. Little things like the subtle misalignment of the "th" can drive graphic designers nuts.

make that year 1981.

Have you read CBS' defense? One thing I've not heard mentioned: Why did Killian not use hyphenated words at the end of lines? A proportional font does not let you know exactly whether there's enough room at the end of the line. It's a convenient coincidence that the replica I typed up in Word wraps the exact same words the "original" wrapped.

So, even if Killian's typewriter had ^th, I'd like to hear how he knew when to to a carriage-return. Were these typewriters computerized/buffered? In 1972?

[Cableguy]

You are right to point that out. It had to do with some obscure agency that has nothing to do with the facts. Some educational agency or something like that. Fox News talked about it on the Brit Hume show. Another evidence that the document is a forgery.

[TheLion]

Thanks. I just learned it should have been OER and not OETR.

I saw the Hume interview. That witness Compani (sp) was very credible.

[Lancey Howard]

I'm afraid that this little experiment was all for naught. The memos in question were typed up by Colonel Killian on an IBM Selectric Composer. I know this because that font of objective integrity, the Boston Globe, says so. Nice try, though.

It's about 70 years of lies; the Berlin Wall of Information in this country.

Precisely.

Bet ol Blather has even bigger bags under them eyes tomorrow. His goose is cooked. I couldn't have happenned to a nicer guy! /sarcasm.

Liberal Cannuck Jennings better stay on his toes or he's next. And I see that NBC appears to be backing off the 3 days they planned to have Kitty Kelly on the Today show. IMAGINE THAT!!!

Wonder what they are afraid of?? They had originally planned to show her for 3 days, but now I can't find her on the schedule at all for the NBC today show website

Feels good to have a  voice, doesn't it?

Statisticians...get to work...What are the odds?

[BJungNan]

Excellent article at this URL. Definately worth the read. Well written. Talks to expert on IBM Selectric Composer machine. http://shapeofdays.typepad.com/

A real good bit of work and a clear presentation.

[Cincinna]

WHODUNNIT?

Vote now:
1. Dan Blather
2. Terry McAwful
3. Hitlery via Clintonistas running Kerry campaign
4. Karl Rove

Although I would get a kick knowing it was Karl Rove under the Divine Guidance from above by the late,great,Lee Atwater, my vote goes to........3. Hitlery via Clintonistas running Kerry campaign.

This will backfire big time on the DNC & Kerry.
Pat Cadell long time Democrat strategist and pollster stated today that is this is a forgery, Kerry will go down in flames and take lots of Dems with him.

Are we looking at a Reagan/Carter type of year?

[Irish Eyes]

Impressive, good work.

Quick question...on another thread someone was asking me what OETR stands for?

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1213053/posts

Campenni added, citing the same memo: "The other issue on that particular letter, there's another comment further down, ‘OETD,' that's the, I presume, ‘OETR.' That's referring to the Officer Efficiency Report...But the term of art was OER. Now it's OES. ‘OETR,' I went and looked in the Air Force glossary for that period, that's Officer Education Training Repositories -- totally unrelated to that. So I don't know why someone who would be doing these things all the time would put the wrong acronym in there for that."

Lori,

This is a crime. It matters that Dan Rather is trying to take down the Office of the President of the United States, regardless of who is in the office. Dan Rather is attacking an American Government Office, the highest in the land. He should be investigated and brought to justice.

[TheLion]

Many thanks....this was exactly what I was looking for!

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

by the way, am i the only one struck by the following sentence in what is purported to be a cover your ass memo to file?: "i'll backdate but won't rate." think about it. here's a guy who is trying to cover his ass, who creates a written, signed confession that he's complicit in falsifying documents (viz., the date thereof). ... so ... yeah. right. this killian writes a memo memorializing his fraud to save him from future trouble?

Killian's wife and son have a great libel case.

[P-Marlowe]

Case Closed!

Obviously Killian had access to Word for Windows!!!!!

They must have been experimenting with a Time Machine over there in Houston. It's probably been moved to Area 51.

Somebody Call Art Bell!!!!!!
