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.

I suggest reading Dumezil, especially on Varuna-type gods including 
Odin, and their servant creatures/people, such as luperci, centaurs and 
Gandharvas. Without Dumezil Pan etc is imposssible to understand. 
Compare Russian theories on Veles - the insufficient treatment of Slavic 
mytholody caused Dumezil to miss many clues. Remember that Veles was 
Christianized as Devil, St Nicholaus and St Cassian - depending on his 
negative/positive aspect. Also see this:
