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.

Wow, there is a ton of Native American stuff on the web! A ton of language
stuff too, though clearly this is still in its infancy. Okay, I can now
tell you what our names are NOT: Objibwa (Acchanabe), Cherokee, Navaho or
Tundra Nenets (that's Siberian---hey, worth a try!). Couldn't access Inuit,
which is my first choice or any other NA laguages, though it might be worth
another try.
