...Could someone call in a birth announcement? Yes. Oh, a paper may have had some requirement or another if you did, but you could.

DID 'LORI STARFELT' MAKE THAT CLEAR IN HER COMMENT? SHE DID NOT! THE ENTIRE EXCERCISE WAS DESIGNED TO GIVE THE IMPRESSION THAT ALL ANNOUNCEMENTS WERE THE RESULT OF A LIST FROM VITAL STAT RECORDS.

And THAT is what Bill O'Reilly is STILL basing his statements upon. THAT is the crutch that has to pulled out from under him.

just a note, I was watching an old TV rerun of the 1960’s Palladin western and they used the phrase Fair Dinkum....there are a lot of good side quotes and statements in the show from time to time..

I miss Captain Phil like crazy! I can’t even watch the show anymore, so sad.

Nerks, listen - I’m not saying you are crazy because you are Australian, I’m saying we don’t do it the same way here. See?

I know damn good and well what Starfelt did, and it got to you because you cannot seem to be objective about this. It is not just about this ONE person’s announcement being placed, and there is likely not a one size fits all answer.

You have no proof that it was done the way you want to INSIST it was done. If you have, trot it on out because I’ve spent a lot of time and money on this “little project” and anyone that has some more real proof to bring to the table should just put their money where their mouth is.

Seriously, a lot of people spend a lot of time “wondering” or insisting or arguing or what have you. Fricken DO something for a change. I did. If I hadn’t gone after all the copies of those newspapers we might not know Starfelt lied about a ton of sh*t to this day. We might not know that “all” births were not announced in the papers.

Step up and do something instead of just insisting you know how something worked in America back in the fricken ‘60’s.
