Too bad that is factually false. With manual typewriters, the only thing that lines up close to "perfectly" is the beginning of a tab.

As noted above, this is simply not true.

But there is another problem.

This "test" was done using a photograph, not a scan. Simple perspective would make different lines look different sizes.

When you do the same test with the AP scan... guess what?

That's interesting....the Census Bureau says there are exactly 3 black people living in the city of Point Hope out of a population of 674.

Oh yeah? Proof? Where are you pulling your so-called facts from? Back it up with links/evidence/statistics because otherwise you're just spouting an ignorant and blind opinion. No surprise coming from you, really.



You'd be right - the deniers are in the minority...that minority being the people who think there's some sort of fraud when it comes to the birth certificate, but are proven wrong again and again. Yeah you're absolutely right - you ARE fighting daily to suppress the truth. Congratulations!



You mean its only take you and your kind 3 1/2 years to do it? If *nothing* has stuck in that time, then what makes you think it'll stick this time around? Face it junior - you're just upset that a black man is in office and goes against everything you've been brought up to believe in. You can't accept change so you fear it and because you fear it, you hate it and because you hate it, you attack it.

Join us in 2012 please. Thank you very much.
I'm not sure we would have done much better with McCain, he stunk too, but not because he's white. Get a clue.

Your right, for a tortured prisoner of war, you'd think he'd be the last one to push towards war.

He's the invade Iran "Colin Powell" right now....

(And i'd say that about Colin Powell if he was white.)

But according to the 2000 Census:


Let's do the math:

Population: 757
Native American: 87.05% - 659 people
White: 8.72% - 66 people
Black: 0.13% - 1 person

Wow. You only have one friend?

. So your stupid preposterous facts are way way off.

There are many of them off the top of my head that are presently in the village.

Many more are in Anchorge due back soon - Lots of people are getting ready for whaling.

YOUR GOOGLE FACTS ARE WRONG!!

There are 3 white people that are residents of Point Hope.

no, that was the claim but perfect horizontal alignment would be something consistent with a computer, not a manual typewriter.

but don't take my word for it. just do an image search for "typed letter" ( or similar search ). the discrepancies in spacing using a manual typewriter are easily seen.

Why are you transcribing the Point Hope phone book into a City Data thread?

I think they are going by the fact many have never worked with a manual typewriter and the work needed to get things to "line up", many have never had to deal with the "1 inch space around the text with NO words broken up with a -".
