    Default Do This Now

    1) Open up a nice new notepad document

    2) type this into your new document: bush hid the facts

    3) Save the document, the title of what you name it doesn't matter

    4) Close and then Re-Open the document, you should end up with a bunch of boxes...what you previously typed in will have been deleted and changed!


    Apparently this is caused by some NSA stuff hidden in the registry. I typed it backwards and it still turned into little boxes.


    Saw this and tried it. It did was the above said it would. Hmmm....Any ideas?

    Oh, and it only works on American P.C.s, so if you're Canadian or European, you should be able to type whatever you want with no problems.

    Wow, that's interesting. Any ideas of why that happens exactly?

    It happened to me when I simply wrote the phrase, but not when i placed it in a sentance.. (Which was 'Have you heard that bush hid the facts..?)

    Same to "Bush hid the dog" and "Bush hid the cat" but not to "Bush hid the bomb".

    Sometimes if the text file contains a four letter word, 2 three-letter words, and a five letter word it will do this. Sometimes not.

    Which Bush? One of the George's or Jeb? Oh well, I guess we'll just have to rely on the lack of evidence to prove the conspiracy.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
