Scientists have found that Thomas Jefferson originally wrote the word "subjects" instead of "citizens" when drafting the Declaration of Independence. My favorite part of the article is this quote:
"This has been a very exciting development," France said, calling the findings "spine-tingling."
I tend to get excited by things like whales eating whales and boobs as you can tell from previous posts. While this is kind of neat that they can use technology to find that a smudge was actually from the erasing of a word, I'm not so sure it's really spine-tingling. However, I will say that if they had found "drinking and whoring" to have been the original phrasing for "the pursuit of Happiness," my spine may have tingled a bit. C'mon people, internet high five!
