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.

SG-1 actually has some depth to it, but I agree there is sometimes a lot 
off dross to pan through to find it.

	Oh absolutely! I didn't watch the first couple of seasons because the 
promotion seemed to emphasize a T&A "charlie's angels in space" look - 
it turned out to be much deeper than that.
