[edit] document examiner?

Is this the same guy who wrote a book on forensic document examination? That guy also authenticated the manuscript of The Bondwoman's Narrative, which should probably be mentioned in the article if he's the same person. 67.117.130.181 05:46, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

Yup, same guy. 217.44.192.46 08:52, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

I added in a mention of his work as an historical dument consultant since he has had his hands on some very important fogeries. His work in that regard is aat least as interesting if not more so than his work as a skeptical investigator.Lisapollison 18:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
