This may have already been posted. I found it on a Yahoo message board about the overtime bill.

"The Selectric II had a lever (above the right platen knob) that would allow the platen to be turned freely but return to the same vertical line (for inserting such symbols as subscripts and superscripts), whereas the Selectric I did not."

2. You can see the superscript in other documents that Bush released

Same superscript, looks like the same proportional type.

3. Clearly, there's a separate 'th' superscript key

The '1' is printed with the 'l', and the 'st' has no similar option. Are the freepers going to claim the entire body of shrub's military documents are false? I'd love to see that one go around.

6. Damb! 2d doucument may be of a later time and done on a word processor

I am looking at the Doc 14 and that may be later, as it stated it was the biography of *, released under FOIA. Sloppy me.

5. Was this the Selectric or the Executive?

I used both in the early '70s and I seem to remember that the Executive had more tricks built in, like variable spacing.
