Why so much synchronicity?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

My own is that life is also full of these "coincidences", the result of a 
possibly ham-handed Divine Providence. i.e., life and history are full of 
incidents of such incredibly low probability that
"no author would dare" use them.
