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.

Aren't they gods?  I've always wondered whether the many-armedness of
the Neighbors was meant, in part, to allude to the representation of
Hindu deities, especially in light of the Indian culture of Gaon and
the fact that the protagonist is the Rajan.
