If they can find things like these (one letter has penacillin spelled wrong)

Where did you hear this? So far I've heard only general descriptions of the wording of the message, e.g. that Allah is praised and that the recipient should take medicine. (I think it's spelled penicillin, btw.)

The wording of the letters was on a thread here yesterday. Afterwards, I saw the wording presented verbatim on last night's NBC nightly news with Tom Brokaw, as Brokaw was interviewing Tom Daschle.

I can confirm the misspelling of penicillin, by the way. But that too might have been part of the act of imitating a child.

LOL, you are right about the spelling. The letter had it misspelled and it screwed me up (likely excuse). Here is the link for the text of the letters.
