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.

I thought they sounded something like Plato's "original humans" (something
like two humans lumped together, some of them male-female, some of them
male-male, some of them female-female), the splitting up of which caused
heterosexual and the two varieties of homosexual love, with each split
half always trying to find its other half.
