David, Re: " ... anyone who maintains the position they aren't fake is either stupid or just wants to argue." I think you have described Ted very accurately. I would have to say that he appears to me to be both. <ggg> Make It So, Yousef

"a) We have reference to an individual who had retired 18 months earlier." Right. And all the contacts and personal relationships evaporated at the moment of his retirement. Sure, sounds plausible. "b) We have a bogus PO Box (34567?? LMAO); even if such a box number exists in downtown Houston, the military doesn't use this kind of address." Should be easy enough to check. No reason just to guess about it. "c) We have the single most important witness backing up CBS' claim now saying, "No way is that memo real"." Don't have a clue. The Swift Boat Veterans seemed to have suffered a lot from someone saying one thing one moment and then another thing the next. "d) No error corrections in four documents? Not likely." Ok. So you are an expert on the error rate on short memos. "e) Assuming the typing equipment did exist (and it didn't), it would have taken multiple changes in type balls (and the use of nonstandard keyboard arrangements) to have typed the memos. It simply didn't happen." Sigh. Ok. First it wasn't possible at all, and now it was difficult. Things do change, don't they? According to the guy who repaired them, and other people have said the same thing, specialized keys were available. In an organization that used a lot of ordinal numbers, it isn't inconceivable that they would do that.
