the other ridiculous statement is that with modern software it is impossible to use a lowercase l in place of a 1.
l234567890. (can you find the secret tang post office box number?)
I don't even understand the logic. Are they saying these were lowercase "ls" or the numeral "1"? If they are trying to say that this means the forger had to go through the extra trouble of adding then deleting an extra space, are they insane? What the heck do they think forgers do? Slap it together and say, good enough for government work? On the one hand, they want to say no forger would be stupid enough to make the mistakes all of us have pointed out, on the other they want to say no forger would bother to defeat the auto-superscript function with a few extra keystrokes. What morons. Let me cross-examine them.
Is that what that idiot said? I thought that's what I heard. Damn, I wish we could get a transcript.
