AEG: Mr. Pavlatos

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.

However he jumps, into the past or future, Bill Reis has only one 
personal timeline, and it ends when he is executed. Cassie may be able 
to steal more time to be with him this way, but if the past cannot be 
changed he must eventually return to die.
