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.

  Interesting that it looks dark blue. The original "tuxedo-style" dinner suit was midnight blue; a navy so dark that it could almost be black (probably navy blue with black threads in the warp or weft, since they didn't have nonreflective coating in the Edwardian era...) The point was to wear a dinner jacket that made black look faded by comparison. Apparently some optical illusions don't need high technology in the right lighting conditions.
