I have in my day seen a typewriter with a "st/th" key. BUT the fonts were different and it was squished. Very very rare, very very expensive. Not for your SOP military typewriter.
This smaks of when the DNC got a hold of bush's debating manuals.

Years ago (60s) as an employee of a national news magazine I used an IBM PSM typewriter. SWIMJ and flitj were letters that had to have the space calculated. No one would use these typewriters to type internal memos and take the time to calculate the center of the page.

Freerepublic more reliable news source than multimillion dollar budgeted CBS.
CBS "journalists" again humiliated as inept by internet.

Oh, just reminded myself ...
The other thing that I had to explain was how if you take a document and make a copy, then copy the copy (and so on for a few generations), that the quality of the document degrades (looks dirty and the letters get blurred and stretched, the document itself starts to look like it was typed crooked, etc.).
He had no idea that that would happen.
It was funny - he said, "How do you know all of this stuff?" I told him I was a secretary/assistant for ten years - how many dozens of documents did he suppose I had to "correct" retroactively during that time? He laughed, but now he believes that the documents are faked.

CBS knows no shame. They will not even apologyze but simply move on to their next attempt to smear the president.
That they are risking our national security is immaterial to them. It seems almost that their goal is to destroy this country from within.

I heard on the radio this AM, that the widow of the supposed writer of these documents never typed a day in his life.

Two of the blog's readers directed their attention to a note left on an Internet bulletin board on the freerepublic.com Web site, the 47th posting on the topic there. Post No. 47 pointed out that there was something off about these documents from the 1970s: The spacing between the letters and the words was proportional, and only a few IBM electric typewriters could achieve that effect back then. Way cool!

I guess FR put the finish to the statement that Kevin Drum is the most talented left wing blogger.
We know that Kevin Drum is nothing more than a shill willing to print straight from the DNC fax line.

You just undid about 20 million dollars worth of 527 attack ads with less then a penny of electricity. I picture an ad something like this......
Presidential campaign..........300 million dollars
527 attack ads.........25 million dollars
10 minutes of Conservative Freeper effort and $.01 cents of electricity...............priceless

....and it "could" have been in the military natioan guard?
What if the typewriter were a manual typewriter?
Can we nominate the Blogers or post number 47 for a pulitzer prize?
To: hoosiermama
Post #47 will be forever know as "Deep-Font" That's priceless! LOLOL!

Just out of curiosity, was "run interference" a commonly used idiom in the early '70s?
Couldn't find any info on-line.
