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.

Maybe... but it doesn't sound Korean to me either.

Or he might be JONAS... Janitorial, Office, and Navigational Assistance 
Servomechanism.

(BTW, I said Chinese, the place I actually associate the names Jonas 
referred to with is Singapore, not that I know very much about what people 
are actually called in either place.)
