“Jay —
I’m waiting on an email to authorize my register info before I can post but in the mean time... you need to tell ctdonath2 that all of his posts are irrelevant to the topic... all the misdirection information he posted would not apply to a microfiche storage of birth certificate information... so I’m having a WTF moment on why he’s even going down the road he travels. He clearly has no understanding of the pertinent points to the discussion and should start by reading my article and report... and to also check out the link to my first report (released for the Cold Case Posse)... that report explains why OCR is not a factor...

Here she comes!!!!
I contend they don't have a microfiche of the BC, nor true original paper form. At the time I describe, it was fashionable to "automate the documents" and destroy all physical copies; to solve some of the legal problems, it was legally necessary to destroy the originals (laws being the twisted derangements they often are).
I read the report. Methinks the references to "random" breakdowns and inconsistencies in the image data fit perfectly with data processing models of the time.
A lot of people have a lot invested in proving this a forgery. Maybe it is. So far I haven't seen anything, consistent with my own experiences in the field & history thereof, which points to fraud instead of mundane low/old-tech software.
