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.

Yeah, that is a problem. They actually intend to catch a ride on that plane 
and get Robert to medical care. Perhaps they are only inspired by the 
Moffats. There is simply no way this could be prior to the 1930s. But not 
later, I think, than the 1960s.
