Post #173,598 by Arkadiy 9/10/04 5:08:55 PM Reply	OK, I did what he did Our office closed early today so I figured, what the heck... Cut and pasted from his Word doc to my own, pasted as plain text, so I only had default formatting. Took a screenshot of Word doc. Took a screenshot of PDF memo from CBS site. Using Adobe Photoshop Elements, reduced the Word screenshot to red outline. Overlayed the red outline over the PDF screenshot. Positioned and stretched until I achieved the following result: [link\|http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/pub/Main/OpenForum/bushMemo.gif\|http://twiki.iwethey...orum/bushMemo.gif] (Whoever maintains tWiki - I screwwd up and saved a 700K .psd file of the same thing. I don't know how to remove it. Could you do that?) -- ... a reference to Presidente Arbusto. -- [link\|http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/001417.html\|Geoffrey K. Pullum]
