A Historical Research Project - OCR of Italian old-style cursive handwriting (2025)

This is a summary of my research project to digitize and OCR a historical document written in Italian in cursive handwriting in the style of 1900.

Background

My uncle Aldo Bechis (1880-1978) was a career naval officer in the Italian Navy and retired as an Admiral.

My cousin, Toni Mattarucco (1940-2009), orphaned at birth (father died in the war in Yugoslavia in 1944), was raised by Uncle Aldo as a son. He had his own short naval officer career at the Morosini College Naval Military School in 1961-63, and then the Naval Academy, and as a Lieutenant until 1969.

I followed Toni’s steps at the Naval College (1967-1970), but a broken neck in 1969 ended my naval experience in June 1970, and I emigrated to the US shortly thereafter.

Uncle Aldo, as a Lieutenant, circumnavigated the globe by steamship (Royal Navy Ship Calabria) from Venice to Japan in 1909-1911 to deliver the first diplomatic respects to the Emperor of Japan on the occasion of Japan’s opening the kingdom to the West. 

During his trip, Uncle Aldo maintained a detailed handwritten log of his travels. It is a unique view of the world by a naval officer of the Italian Royal Navy, as he discovered the world and reported on details of military importance and human curiosity.  

The original Log Book was lost over the years, but Toni had made a photocopy of it (before Xerox) for my education and memories. 

The OCR Project

Over the intervening 60 years I never found it convenient to read the Log Book, written in Italian cursive writing in the style of 1900, quite different from the cursive I learned to read and write in Italy in my elementary school years. I repeatedly tried digitizing and OCR some pages without success.

In 2025 I digitized pages of the photocopied manuscript and used ChatGPT to OCR . This was yet another attempt following repeated failures with various software and services during 2020-2024. The particular style of handwriting had been an immovable rock.

ChatGPT was amazing. But only intermittently. Some days, some pages would yield fast, spotless OCR transcriptions; other days, unpredictably, could not even try for lack of a software module called ita.traineddata by Tesseract (open software on GitHub). Repeated attempts to get ChatGPT Admins to load the module, even temporarily and on a schedule of their choosing, went nowhere. Only about 200 pages were OCRd out of about 800, then the module was never found again loaded in the environment. ChatGPT, too, was a dud despite its amazing capabilities when enabled.

I installed the module in my laptop and attempted to run locally with Python scripts. That failed because ChatGPT also included extensive image filtering and improvements in its processing pipeline that I never managed to match.  Strike out.

The search for a new tool started again, and I came across handwritingocr.com thanks to a Reddit referral. Awesome.

The transcription quality was on par with ChatGPT (although not free), but required fewer steps to get it done. The UI was well designed, and the founder, Matt, was incredibly responsive to my suggestions for UI improvements. Really amazing customer support.

 HandwritingOCR.com was a godsend and worth every dime I paid for it. BRAVO Matt.

Conclusion: 

• I got the document completely OCRd in record time

• I downloaded images and transcribed text as a PDF and a MS Word docx

• The Word doc is nicely visible 2-page-up with the image on the left page and the OCR text on the right. HOWEVER, Word’s inability to stop the continuous word counting makes editing a single large document hopeless. Strike out.

• Moving to Google Docs allows multiple editors to collaborate to verify and clean up minor errors, but it loses the 2-page-up convenience.

• The project is continuing

• A first edition of a few pages is below.

• In due course, I will use ChatGPT to translate and post the whole document in English. I already tested this, and it does an amazing job. Despite my native Italian knowledge, it is the way to go in the age of AI. It translates as well me but it writes at light speed.

Liberation Day 9/21/2025

 Reflections on Liberation Day - 9/21/25

Old age is a bitch because it lets you remember the past not as painted by the media but as we experienced it. That’s not to say we were saints and all was great, but we remember the facts of the time as they were.

I grew up in Northern Italy in the 1950s. My family had a notable history in the Italian Resistance against the German occupation from 1943 to 1945.  From a very young age, I learned the difference between Independence Day and Liberation Day. The first celebrates a separation from an unacceptable political structure. The latter celebrates the expulsion of a foreign occupying force.

Today, America found its Liberation Day.  Sure, we have been independent for 250 years, but the founding principles of America have been OCCUPIED since 9/11/2001 by a combination of government and cultural manipulations. The government roused up and brainwashed the citizenry to support forever wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, etc. Even if we want to presume, despite recent analyses, that warmongers did not light the first fuse in NYC 9/11, they sure leveraged circumstances and popular fears into the forever wars they benefited from.

The cultural occupation was a more subtle event. It started in the 1970s academia with a strategically planned infiltration first proposed by Gramsci, then Alinsky, then the Frankfurt School, then Weather Underground, and Students for a Democratic Society, etc. It called for the penetration of the educational establishment from the top down. In the 1970s, it infected colleges; in the 1980s and 1990s, it spread into the K-12 system. In the early 2000s to 2015, it spread to the broader society in the guise of “Political Correctness”. The term was first used to supervise and control correct thinking in collectivists' cadres, then it expanded to coerce conservatives at large into “either say something positive or keep it to yourself for social harmony’s sake”. It worked: conservatives ceded the debate podium and were silenced.

By 2016, conservatives were defined as uneducated and of inferior moral character and sentiments. “Woke” was invented to glorify those who “woke” to the new thinking constructs scripted by the Ivy League-Marxist-educated elites: critical theories of race, history, medicine, physics, urban planning, etc. 

By 2016, we learned from CNN the voting differences between Deplorables and the College-educated.  

In 2016 to 2020, we heard how the populist majority had been bamboozled by an illegitimate president controlled by Russia, who was obstructed to political impotence.

In 2020, COVID provided the perfect cloud of confusion within which elections were rigged, as it has been documented in 2025.

In 2020-2024, censorship became the norm ostensibly to battle disinformation and any dissenting opinions. Dissenters were labeled racist and white supremacist by default.

Much to everyone’s surprise, in 2024, the commonsensical populace took a second bite at a Trumpian alternative.

For nearly 10 months, we have seen fraud and corruption uncovered and carefully detailed by DOGE, and belief in the bureaucracy has declined dramatically. Yet despite the ugly details, conservatives still could not find a voice and a way out of the “cultural occupation”.

That changed on 9/10/2025 when Charlie Kirk, an activist promoting open dialogue, was assassinated. The official answer is that the shooter is an angry young man in a relationship with a furry trans. Alternate guesses include a broader conspiracy of furry types and various state actors, either foreign or domestic. Take your pick. Of late, conspiracy theories have been proven right within six months, so we’ll know soon.

The result has been unexpected: Today, we witnessed a national-scale cultural and religious revival that called believers and followers to “Be Charlie Kirk” and continue his peaceful mission. His wife forgave the assassins in a spirit of Christian martyrdom.

Today, I saw the end of any claim of superior morality by the left. The attendees of the memorial found a new voice. They will no longer cede the podium. They will demand recognition of the difference between good and evil and their right, duty, in fact, to enforce a social recognition of the differences.

The days of “be nice or be silent” are over. We demand recognition that what is right is right, what is wrong is wrong, and common sense trumps convoluted academic critical theories. I do not claim that 

‘The witch is dead” but I think that if Woke is not, it sure smells like the beginning of its end. The time when self-appointed elites could define correct thinking has come to its logical dead end, if not today, soon.

That is Liberation Day, 9/21/2025

My Turning Point - 9/10/2025

 On 9/10/25 a giant fell. The thunder he created, I believe, will resonate for a long time for many. 

I followed Charlie Kirk for years, occasionally watching his on-campus debates with college students under the banner "Prove Me Wrong". I recognized him as a force for peaceful change, but alas, he did not change me enough. I remained stuck in the mental maze that typified my adult mode of political interaction.

I believe the vast majority of conservative thinkers in America checked in their mode of political interaction at the "Political Correctness Desk" beginning in the early 1980s. 

The term Political Correctness came into use in the 1970s by the left to define what their leaders defined as the correct way to think progressively about feminism, gay marriage, education, and political action. 

In the 1980s, Conservatives adopted the term as a snide, ridiculing description of Progressive-mandated party-think. It was a Trojan horse. Most Conservatives gradually came to accept it as a rule to follow to be "Correct" in political discourse. Most would see it as a call to avoid inconclusive debate, do not let politics impact friendships and social occasions. Either say something agreeable or nothing at all - Correctness was conflict avoidance.

The result was that a silent majority became evermore silent. 

During the Reagan years, many of us saw a return to a political and economic normality that had been lost in the 1965-1975 decade. We were in the early years of family formation, entering the beginning of career formation in a society and economy that were active, productive, and becoming unconcerned with politics that mostly appeared to work.

The 90s and 2000s brought sudden changes: the fall of Communism, the Internet, the WTO, globalization, NAFTA, Dot-Com, and the myth of Hope-and-Change. Through that turmoil, Conservatives focused on work, productivity, law & order, too busy or uncaring to focus on politics; Correctness was repackaged as polite conflict avoidance.

The 2010s to 2020s were dominated by endless wars, government propaganda, the independent media capture by government, industries, and NGOs, the dressing-up of global warming from a fact into an anthropogenic threat, the pharmaceutical industry capture, and the military-industrial complex. 

Each period brought increasing consolidation of corporate power, government expansion, and corruption enabled by permissive morality and cultural/social disruption. Conservatives largely accommodated rather than actively resisted interpreting "political correctness as conflict avoidance," thus ceding the debate stage to Progressives, emboldened by a mantra of "the more radical, the better."

Like Jeremiah in the wilderness, voices like Charlie Kirk's were beginning to ring warning bells, but again, Political Correctness was conflict avoidance - "agree or keep it to yourself for the sake of smooth relations, no matter how preposterous the argument."

Conservatives, by tradition since the American Revolution, most want to be left alone. The less government, the less turmoil, the less interference, the better, because we are busy building whatever for our families and lives. Conversely, Progressives seek change, government mandates, direction, activism that in all historical experiences, became bureaucratic social control of the individual by the collective, driven by redistributive envy. 

Free speech is the last defense, our First Constitutional Amendment. It was made possible and remains so only by the Second, and by the Defenders like Charlie Kirk's (Turning Point USA) and Elon Musk's (Twitter/X), who put their lives and pocketbooks at risk for the cause.

Thanks to Charlie, I have found my Turning Point. I will refuse all calls to violence, but I will no longer cede the debate stage by agreeing that costumes and reality are equivalent. They are not. Destructive delusions that men can be women and vice versa. That socialism in a 'democratic' costume can be a lasting freedom despite all historical experience. That government is not the enemy of the individual. That critical theory is not an intellectual scam. I will not debate to convince, but I will no longer agree to fashionable delusions and nonsense just to be agreeable. Now I will rather walk away.

The Coming Tidal Change in US Government Executive Branches Management

Reposted from Brownstone Institute - July 14, 2025 

The Racket Unravels

This past week, the Supreme Court delivered an opinion that could change everything, if not immediately then eventually. It permits the elected president to control the composition of the executive workforce. This involves millions of people in hundreds of agencies who heretofore imagined themselves to be the true and permanent government of the US. 

The administrative state has never been lawful by the words of the US Constitution. There is no fourth branch of government. There is no independent agency that operates on its own, responsive only to the corporations with whom it has a revolving door and working in tandem with the national media. That’s how the system has worked for one hundred years. 

No more. The effects of this decision, and several others dating back only one year, is fundamental to the cause of freedom itself. It won’t be enough to protect the country against more despotic moves such as we have lived through, but it is an excellent start. 

The turning point was of course Covid, when the deep state called the shots, invaded our communities and homes and then imposed experimental shots in violation of the Nuremberg Code. This was the turning point. No free people can live this way, not with the reality nor the threat that it could happen again. 

Almost daily, we see some first steps at justice. In 2021, Dr. Kirk Moore of Utah had a bad feeling about these shots and made it possible for people to avoid them. He distributed saline shots and vaccine passports widely. The Department of Justice went after him, incarcerated him for 12 days, and put him on trial. 

The good news came yesterday that the Department of Justice has completely dropped the case, mostly in response to pleas from lawmakers who cared and growing groups of protesters. The man is a hero, and is now free. The trauma, however, lasts and lasts for a lifetime. He is one victim of millions, and there is much more to do. 

Other legal progress is unfolding gradually, with several of our partner organizations prevailing in the long slog. Much more to do. 

D.O.G.E. Progress Report to the President - February 11, 2025

 As Laura Ingraham says, it's Christmas every morning. 

Yesterday Elon Musk reported to President Trump. It was awesome. I lost count of how many gifts arrived in that report.  The best review is by  Jeff Childers and I could not hope to match it.

long but a great review worth your time.

Pressed for time? chatGPT summary to the rescue. You are welcome, but you'll miss Jeff's great writing and clever nuances.

☕️ SWAMP APOCALYPSE ☙ Wednesday, February 12, 2025 ☙ C&C NEWS 🦠Summary

### **Summary of Key Points:**

#### **1. Trump’s Unexpected Offensive Against the Deep State**

- Instead of taking a defensive stance against legal challenges, Trump launched an aggressive, coordinated assault through an executive order and multiple press conferences.

- Speaker Mike Johnson supported Trump’s decision to withhold congressionally approved payments deemed wasteful or fraudulent, further solidifying GOP unity against bureaucratic spending.

- Johnson dismissed Democrat claims of a "constitutional crisis" and criticized their selective adherence to the rule of law.

#### **2. The Role of DOGE in Exposing Government Waste**

- DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) is uncovering financial mismanagement in federal agencies.

- Johnson met with Elon Musk, praising DOGE for revealing budget inefficiencies hidden from Congress.

- A budget reconciliation bill is being prepared, leveraging DOGE’s findings to justify major spending cuts, potentially dismantling agencies like USAID.

#### **3. Declassification Task Force’s New Transparency Push**

- Florida Representative Anna Paulina Luna announced a Congressional task force focused on declassifying key documents.

- Among the files set for release: JFK, MLK, and RFK assassinations, 9/11 records, UFOs, COVID-19 origins, and Jeffrey Epstein’s client list.

- This initiative could erode public trust in government institutions by exposing longstanding cover-ups.

#### **4. Musk and Trump’s Oval Office Press Conference**

- Elon Musk, alongside Trump, delivered a status update on DOGE’s work, highlighting egregious government waste:

  - Overpayment for migrant housing.

  - Social Security checks issued to people over 150 years old.

  - Inefficient record-keeping stored in underground mines.

- Musk declared DOGE will investigate public officials who became wealthy in office, intensifying scrutiny of bureaucratic corruption.

#### **5. Executive Order for Federal Workforce Reduction**

- Trump signed an executive order limiting new government hires (1 for every 4 departures) and mandating agencies to work with DOGE on downsizing efforts.

- New conduct rules for federal employees aim to curb leaks, tax evasion, and misuse of government resources.

- This order bypasses judicial obstacles and forces immediate cuts in bureaucracy.

#### **6. Strategic Shift: Congress and the Executive vs. Judiciary**

- By using budget reconciliation, Trump and Congress sidestep court challenges, making bureaucratic funding cuts nearly irreversible.

- The Swamp was caught off guard, expecting legal battles but now facing financial starvation.

- The GOP’s new approach reframes the battle as “The People vs. The Bureaucracy” rather than a partisan fight.

#### **7. The Deep State’s Existential Crisis**

- Three simultaneous threats: budget cuts, declassification, and corruption investigations.

- The judiciary is rendered ineffective as Congress and the Executive take direct action.

- Trump’s strategy represents the most significant effort to dismantle the administrative state in U.S. history.

#### **Conclusion:**

- The political battlefield has shifted dramatically in a single day.

- The Deep State is now under siege from multiple angles, with Congress and the Executive aligned against entrenched bureaucratic power.

- The next phase will focus on legislative battles, further disclosures, and structural reforms to shrink the government’s influence.

🔥 **A turning point in the fight against the administrative state has begun.**

The Rebirth of America 1/27/2025

Our country was changed in less than a week to make a U-turn back to our roots of individualism, self-reliance, and as minimal government interference as possible. The Government is the enemy that must be kept small to be controlled if the citizens are to live free.

This is the best summary I have seen so far. One could summarize it as: 

Trump found a bankrupt business, froze all spending, and required zero-based budgeting before anyone could spend another dime - It's that simple, done routinely to failing businesses. The US was on the road to bankruptcy and our President may have stopped it just in time.

How to eliminate the federal income tax - an experiment in collective AI use

 Welcome

this is an experiment in policy exploration at scale (many readers) using chatGPT as a rudimentary but fast researcher and calculator,

Disclaimer: Yes, yes, yes. There are many flaws to this investigation. First, the investigator (me) has questionable credentials (no PhD, oh my, only an MBA in International Finance and 50+ years in banking, corporate finance, and startup business management). Second, chatGPT is hardly a reliable failproof assistant. Third, like any policy proposal, it depends on the political perspective. Fourth, the devil is always in the details and one of those PhDs can find enough to sink this ship.  

Presuming you have nothing better to do, join me into the rabbit hole.

Questions: Could...

1. Federal Income tax be eliminated
2. Progressivity be maintained or increased
3. Government size and cost be reduced
4. ... add your own...

My chat with chatGPT (the rabbit hole) was instructive, Try your own with better questions

A New Normal Is Coming

Reprint from X. 

This is a great assessment of how and why our world may finally change. Perhaps the Silent Majority has finally confronted the cost of the American Cultural Revolution we tolerated for years and called Woke

 Trump, His Disrupters, and a Chance to Return to Normalcy?

Many of Trump first-round picks share some common themes. One, many, who were in the past victimized by government bullies and cowardly bureaucratic grandees, or proved sharp critics of the administrative state, are now, in karma-style, in charge of the very agencies that hounded him. So, Elon Musk, perennial target of government regulatory functionaries, was once policed, but now he polices the bureaucratic police. Robert Kennedy, Jr., proposed overseer of government health programs, was often blasted as a crank by the subsidized scientists and the administrators within HHS whom he will now direct. Pete Hegseth fought the military DEI machinery while a solider in the ranks and wrote a book about the corruption of the Pentagon. He will now, if confirmed, run the Pentagon. Tulsi Gabbard was improperly put on a national security travel watch list as a supposed security threat—and now will be a guardian of our security as Director of National Intelligence. Tom Homan was derided by the Biden administration and its Homeland Security minions as a fanatic border hawk; now he will run ICE and deal with the detritus of Biden fanaticism on the border. Two, none of these appointments are traditional swamp creatures. Few rotate from the think tanks. This time around there are no retired “Wise Men” or retired four-stars. Few are Uniparty magnificoes revolving back into high government from their DC university or New York corporate and investment waystations. None are DEI, cover-our-identity-politics-base candidates. By design, their past government service resumes are thin—few past undersecretaries of these or special assistant to those. And there are not a lot of suffixed alphabetic letters or prefixed long-winded titles that adorn their names. In other words, they are vaxed from the sort of acculturated administrative state mindset that has alienated and terrified the citizenry. Three, they all share a reputation from the mainstream media, bicoastal elite, or administrative state guardians as a little “out there” or even “crazy” and “nuts”, whether RFK, Tulsi Gabbard, or Pete Hegseth. So, their opponents rightly fear they are immune from mainstream media disparagements, the usually leftwing generated hoaxes, and beltway tsk-tsk scorn. Fourth and finally, they are not radicals or nihilists. Rather, they are reformers who are trying to trim or eliminate bloated government machinery, or return institutions and agencies to their normal functions and original missions. In contrast, the last few years of Biden governance chaos and near insurrection were abnormal—and dangerous. Destroying the border and breaking the law to allow 12 million to enter illegally were nihilist. Stealthily routing government cash, to circumvent the law, to a communist Chinese-run viral gain-of-function engineering lab is beyond the belief. Creating a commissar system in the military that demanded ideological orthodoxy over meritocracy, or the Chairman of the JCS secretly communicating with his People’s Liberation Army counterpart to warn about his own commander-in-chief’s stability was insurrectionist. Weaponizing the DOJ by performance-art swat home raids on opponents, and collusion lawfare waged by local, state, and federal indictments against a former president and presidential candidate were un-American. Asymmetrical prosecutions and FBI fusion with social media to censor the news were sheer government anarchy. There are legitimate questions about the confirmability of Matt Gaetz, or his prosecutorial experience, or some of his alleged past excesses, but his very accusers were mostly quiet about the weirdos, creeps, and revolutionaries in the Biden administration—accused of stealing women’s luggage at airports, or lying that a subordinate “racist” border patrol whipped in slave-master fashion innocent would-be immigrants, or trying to fix a felonious presidential son’s sentencing to avoid the accustomed legal consequences of his criminal behavior. In sum, the currently loud censors have zero credibility given the unprofessional, weaponized, and nihilist  examples they have bequeathed.

I am garbage

I like to think I am not too old to learn a new strategy. So, I paid close attention and asked myself why would someone hope to convince a voter to possibly change sides by suggesting they are garbage? You can tell I AM GARBAGE and was not likely to become a turncoat, but still, why go on TV and call Gen Z's stupid, why call Hispanic and Black men mysoginist? The only reason I can fathom is an incredible level of arrogance, a belief so great of one's moral superiority, a claim to one's superior intelligence and education that divides "us the morally superior" from "them the garbage". 

That line of thinking started in 2015 with Hillary's claim that all "the college-educated" were on her side. Oops, not all were then, but from her loss, she and her ilk learned nothing. So Kamala served word salads to the same crowd with a few insults for spice. Even the college-educated found the salads lacking and sided and went for garbage.

One wonders if the genius class of Van Jones, Dana Bash, Jim Acosta, Anderson Cooper, etc, the list goes on across all networks, are low IQ impostors. But meritocracy, the little that still exists, has been around long, so that option is unlikely. What then? Arrogance is the likely answer. If your head is far enough up there, you can believe enough in your superior intellect and morality to actually try to compete with Don Lemon for the prize. And thanks to Obama's freedom to do propaganda at scale for years, the geniuses lost track that the garbage was not following instructions, was developing an independent mind snooping reality on X. Oops.

And so the surprise came. They did not take out the garbage, the garbage took them out. And that was the night that Woke died.

Deliverance

Best said by Jeffrey Tucker of Brownstone Institute (reprint)

My biggest shock this morning is discovering that the system still works. I almost can't believe it. I was on the verge of thinking that the entirety of what we call democracy was fake. What happened last night was real, and achieved through the system itself. 

Is this how revolution occurs in Western industrial democracies? That's the theory and we might be seeing the reality now. 

The next step is for those whom the people have elected to become the actual government and not the fakes that they have been for so very long. Especially from 2020 onward, we've been ruled domestically (but also globally) by a kind of behind-the-scenes junta of off-the-books bureaucrats whom no one elected. 

That must change, and it means disempowering in its entirety the complicated network of deep, middle, and shallow layers of the administrative state, the one built over war and crisis for 135 years. 

After the release of ALL political prisoners in a US version of Bastille Day, the gutting of the administrative state must be at the top of the list. We cannot have a genuine people's government unless the people regain control of "the machine". 

There is every reason to believe that the Trump transition team knows this.

Corruption is This Election's October Surprise

Check out this interview.

To be sure, neither Tucker Carlson nor Harmit Dillon are disinterested impartial observers. Carlson is well known to be a Trump supporter and Dillon has run for Chair of the RNC.

However, an attorney like Dillon may be presumed to have ample proof of her claims as a defense from a defamation suit. Both Dillon and Carlson seem to be truly offended by the extent of reported corruption. You be the judge in preparation for voting

The Age of Fear, Anxiety, Climate Fraud

 In 1987 Micheal Crichton published "State of Fear" an interesting novel that contained in appendix the best bibliography available at that time to non-scientist. It predicted the state of mind of most of society in the US today and how private interests and the mainstream media were intent in shaping collective beliefs.

Today Michael Shellenberger demonstrates that we have in fact fallen into the hands of those private interests, not because they had evil intents but simply because they ignorantly believed "the most heard" and gradually most of us came to drink the same cool-aid.  It is not too late for a little education.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqcDyHdbYd4&ab_channel=TheTelegraph

And for the data-focused/minded reader, check the data and the charts that debunk what we hear.  It is free education   https://environmentalprogress.org/the-case-against-environmental-alarmism?utm_source=pocket_saves and the good news is that even the activist "average" forecast does not warrant the hysteria of the "extreme" forecasts that are much advertised because hysteria sells media.
