Testing; LetterGate

Hello from Detroit. For those who saw the “Test” post that was up yesterday: I was having some difficulty posting over the weekend (which is why there were no new posts for several days), and that post was part of HostingMatters trying to fix the problem, which they did. Once again, they provided wonderful support.

On to the post I've been trying to make since Saturday morning …

Hmmm. I read here a story describing how different newspapers around the country are getting letters from soldiers in the field describing a favorable picture of Iraqi reconstruction.

The only problem is that the letters are largely identical.

Whoops.

Dirty tricks? Or dirty tricks meant to look like dirty tricks? Or just some NCO in the field trying to get recognition for his troops? Read the article and draw your own conclusions (and note that I cross-posted this here).
