FR is true democracy and shows the tidal wave power of many people "working" together. Blogs would be nowhere without forums, and good Blogs grow healthy in in the internet ecology that great Forums such as this one are a major component of.
And TankerKC too -- HIS was the first post and the one that laid down the strongest counter. Why his?

I actually have wondered why the formatting errors weren't given more prominence in the argument that the memos were faked. It is irrefutable. The memos, which were supposed to have been written in 1972, were in a format that the USAF didn’t adopt until 1992. The memo formats or 1972 and 2004 are VERY different.
