Then off with you, troll.
If the memos are authentic:
You must believe the Texas Air National Guard had a special typewriter that cost over $20,000 in today’s dollars.
Nope. Composers had been available for six years. While they may have been that pricey at their introduction, they clearly weren't by 1972. There would also have been surplus available. And even if they were 20K in constant dollars, it's irrelevant. The military spends what it must to procur the equipment it needs. Especially the AF. Trust one who spent a career contracting with the military, instead of some yutz with a website.
Moreso, the memos could have been typed with an Executive - cheap and capable of producing the text.
You must believe that it was used to write everyday memos.
Why not? You think a clerk or secretary would switch typewriters based on the significance of what was being typed?
And that a special (read expensive) font ball was used.
Golf balls were reasonably cheap. What makes you think some were more expensive than others? That presumes, BTW, that a Composer did the trick, and that a Composer didn't have dual-pitch superscripting, like its predecessor, the Selectric II. Or, for that matter, the Executive.
And that the ball was changed to a smaller size (8pt) to create the superscript in the middle of typing the memo and then changed back.
That's how it was done for italics, bold, et al. It was a simple task for a secretary. Ask one from the period in question.
And that the spacing between lines (leading) was set to a highly non-standard (13pt) setting.
No one knows what leading was used on the original memos, but even if 13pt, it's irrelevant. On the Composer, changing leading was a simple twist of a dial.
And that special measuring was performed to produce centered headers.
The Composer did automatic, proportional centering.
And such special measuring was done exactly the same on memos three-months apart.
No need for it. See above.
And that all of the above was performed by a man that didn’t type.
Nope. That "all of the above" was done for him by someone who did type.
If the memos are forged:
You must believe that the most common word processing software was used.
And that it was set to one of the 3 or 4 most common fonts.
And that the most common margin settings were used (default.)
And that the most common tab settings were used (again default).
And that the most common line spacings setting were used (yup, it’s default!).
And that the moon is made of green cheese. It doesn't work. I've proven it. Have you?
Those still in doubt about the memos are encouraged to Google the term “Occam's Razor.”
Occam's Razor sez that if you're going to forge documents from the 1970's, you use equipment from the 1970's.
See how easy? The memos are genuine. Everybody knows that. Why are you afraid to discuss their contents? George W. Bush is a traitor. Why do you support a traitor? Why do you hate this country so much?
Say hi to freekerville for us, willya?
