“Tracking Song” (and other stories)

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.

Looking at that again, that's a misrepresentation of his theory, which is
not so much about the Fall as it is about the Cain and Abel story. Just to
clarify.
