whorl numbering and the seal of pas

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 am no cryptologist and I have no idea how to approach deciphering this.  could it be related to a different base numbering system? probably not

The two rows of aligned nunbers made me think of the "sign of addition" 
that Silk was always making. Maybe adding the numbers would get something.

5553 8783 4223  9700 34
2221 0401 1101  7276 56
-----------------------
7774 9184 5324 16976 90

The first number "7774" makes me think of the old inverted-number 
calculator message "7734" or "hell". This one would be "hlll". The 90 at 
the end is somewhat interesting, too.
