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.

Do you have a cite supporting this? A bas relief of the Tzadkiel 
(polygon cross-section, with masts on all sides) would not really 
resemble a single water vessel. "Argosy" can be multiple ships and the 
Tzadkiel has certain plural traits, but the tomb-ship is IIRC always 
singular.
