Lamport's Hash Question...

In section 12.2 Lamport's hash we mentioned the notion of using only 64 bits of the hash. At each stage, 128 bits are computed, 64 bits are thrown away, and the hash of the retained 64 bits is used in the next stage. The purpose of only using 64 bits is so that a human does not need to type as long a string. Assuming the person will still only type 64 bits, does it work if hash" does a hash of all 128 bits of hashn1, but what the person actually transmits is 64 bits of the result?
