What's So Great About Ushas?

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.

Except for reducing your credibility to a level below the cosmic 
microwave background, you mean?  When you say you believe X is always 
true, then X might be true, and then that you will oppose X with deadly 
force in the space of a couple messages, I can't agree that "works" 
means what you think it means, I have to find "mine" suspect as well, 
and frankly I'm not entirely comfortable with your use of punctuation 
either.
