[Centurion2000]

First (leaving aside how suspiciously well Buckhead puts sentences together for a righty blogger), there’s the extraordinary, yeah, boggling, knowledge of typewriting arcana. More remarkable still are the circumstances under which discernment occurred. Namely, viewing the document on a TV screen from a presumed distance of six to a dozen feet. Folks who make their living at this sort of thing rely on magnifying glasses, if not microscopes.

To the author of this pile of tripe, 2 things:

1) The forgery was PATHETICALLY BAD.
2) Freepers are THAT good.

Centurion, I agree with your response to the above pathetic attempt by Anson to obfuscate reality; it was obvious just from viewing the TV screen shot that the documents were created on a modern-day word processor, not an early-1970s typewriter. You didn't need to spend hours poring over the actual documents with a microscope to figure that out. (Perhaps Anson is simply too old to realize that the members of a younger generation can indeed tell the difference merely by eyeballing it.)

However, I have two points of my own:

1) Weren't the PDFs of these documents already on the CBS News web site by the time Buckhead posted, making Anson's allegation false on its face?

2) Anson's point is utterly moot, because the documents now have been examined by the "folks who make their living at this sort of thing," and they agree with Buckhead, not Anson!
