Did George W complete the 12 steps of the Program? If not, we can look forward to the FALL OF BUSH II this Fall. Watch out for that missing step.

What are the odds that a document would tear in that manner?

DV: Thanks for the link. Unfortunately, judging from my traffic stats (and following the links), it appears several people think the "reconstructed" document is real - and I've had to issue a clarification. Still, it gets people thinking (which was the point). Looks like the TANG story has legs. Finally!

Documents tear at the holes at the top.

Why aren't there totals at the bottom?

They come off a line printer which has that sans serif all uppercase print. AF typewriters used courier fonts.

You have to go to a duty officer when you show up at a new base and your name, serial number, and order number are entered into a bound ledger. Your appearance is then noted on the unit Daily Report.

When you go to a drill you sign in to get credit. There is a report of the drill that includes those who attended.

It is a tired, but true, comment that the aircraft doesn't take off until the weight of the paperwork equals the weight of the airplane.

I was in the Air Force and an Aircrew Member from 1966 to 1974. The records were computerized and you left a trail of paper that weighed more than you did every four years.

Ho Hum, wake me when you find something! It really is amazing to find so many dim lits gathered at one site. It really is urgent that you find something soon, now that you have publicly called the President of the United States a deserter, AWOL and on and on
and on... Is there a terrorist cell in your town? Check it out after you Bushphobes get through applauding each other, if you have some time left.
