[quote:fellowearthling:MV8xMTEzNTg2XzI0NDY5MDMwXzU2RUU5NURF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 241802] Has anyone had a look at any of the documents released under the FOIA about the spill? I was just having a look at some UK Embassy communications shortly after the "leak" and something strange caught my eye. Had I not frequented this thread, I would have just passed it off as bad typing, but now it looks a little to me like the coding we saw in Acolyte's bursts. http://research.polluterwatch.org/share/page/site/bpdocs/document-details?nodeRef=workspace://SpacesStore/38278e88-2b1c-4a6a-985b-79ac9fdd9629 You might have to log in rather than go there directly via that link. Login directions are on the home page. Then go to the document library, then Embassy Communications. The document I'm referring to here is UK-embassy-01.pdf. Here's a couple of samples, but there are lots more evident throughout: "{...}[b]we await furth.er. info from BP later today. PD,sible'liability and reputation issues (see below). Could be the big!;Jestblowout.of an o:ffshore well in 30 ~affi.[/b]" and later, "[b]BP consid~r themselves well prepared for potential spills, and their surveiU~nce indicates thaUhere has not been any leakage from the well port.[/b]" and later, "[b]10.Earlier today President Obama told reporters: "I <?Ontinu~ to believe that domestic oil production is an important part Qf our overall strategy[/b]..." Also noticed different font sizes within apparently the same document. Maybe the Embassy official is really a bad typist ... or maybe not. Some of the supposed errors are counter-intuitive unless that person's keyboard isn't set in QWERTY. ?? [/quote] The document may have been scanned and miss-read by OCR software which is prone to errors like this. [/quote]
