This appears to be the original source:

According to http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/www/justify.html
text-justify is a Microsoft extension, and it's not listed in
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS/ . So only Internet Explorer users can
experience the incredible sophistication of having their text
letterspaced :-).
