Yes, I'm saying that. But even more importantly I think thats what Dr. Newcomer is saying too;)

I hope the U.S. Department of Justice begins an investigation and contacts this man.

Very good article. Good find. This isn't the final nail in the coffin -- it's a bunch of extra nails after the final nail.

[Boundless]

Ping to several folks who have been chewing on this.

The referenced article here seems to settle the kerning
issue.

Yes, the memo contains nested glyph pairs, and
yes that was essentially impossible for Killian, but
no, they aren't "kerned".

[Enterprise]

It's not only a few more nails in the coffin, it's a heap of dirt on the coffin. What a powerful article.

I don't care how many times you post these graphics. It makes me laugh out loud each time.

"It looks like you're crafting a crude forgery"....a talking paper clip....grab a beer and watch the festivities at DU....I love it!

[SC Swamp Fox]

It is therefore my expert opinion that these documents are modern forgeries.

Good find...this guy nails it.

[truthluva]

Okay...his name is Newcomer? Is this for real? If so, has CBS seen this? And if so, have the lights been turned off in Rather's office yet?

Game, set, match. Perfect article. Easy to understand and follow written by an obvious expert in the field.

Excellent! Check out this Amazon search

How can the MSM ignore this?

"I don't care how many times you post these graphics. It makes me laugh out loud each time."

You know, I've always hated that little paper clip popping up when I'm trying to do work and have fantasized about wiping that damn smile off her face.

I'll never look at "Clippy" the same again after this.

Thanks for the link, very good info at the site.

This article is impressive, as is his resume.

Note the most compelling item that everybody else missed is the "fr" example, if you make it that far in the article, quoted below.

"Examine carefully the “fr” in the word “from” in the 18-August-1973 memo. The “r” is tucked under the “f” in the same way a Microsoft font does it. In 1972, technology available in the office, including proportional typewriters, could not do this.

Mr Rather....Dan Rather.....we have your exit papers ready at the personnel office..........to avoid any embarrassment we backdated them a week....I know you will understand..........signatures..?.......we already too care of that.

If these memos were produced in 1972 and 1973, it would be easier to believe that a time traveller [sic] did it than to believe that it is sheer coincidence.

Juan Williams on Special Report tomorrow night: "I can't believe what I'm hearing! An independent expert has already proved that a time traveler typed these memos for Mr. Killian! Back off, Fred! Back off, Mort! I'm sick of the right wing propaganda!"

I've contacted the mod to add a note to the title that this is a nonpartisan expert's opinion.

[tophat9000]

Big (zot! CBS!) bump

[stands2reason]

WOW! That was fast, Mod! You guys are so amazing!!!

Good Idea - Thanks
