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.

Robert Borski,

It was pointed out elsewhere/somewhen that the last bit of
"Forlesen," the Yes No part, is actually the answer (from the nine
archetypes) to the final question.

Doctor         --No
Priest         --Yes
Philosopher    --No
Theologian     --Yes
Actor          --Yes
Warlock        --No
National Hero  --Yes
Aged Loremaster--Yes
Novelist       --Maybe

Forlesen gets all nine answers because he didn't specify which one he
wanted.

This does not alter your binary observation, which is an interesting
one, but how does binary (0,1) deal with "maybe" (2?)?
