finally read AEG

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.

As someone who was fortunate enough to have spoken with Gene about AEG on more than one occasion, I can deduce with some confidence that Cassie reminds Gene of his wife Rosemary.

Some of you may have heard the interview with Gene where he chokes up when saying how Cassie took the reins of his story and became the star. Well, he expressed the exact same emotion when talking to me about it in front of my house whilst walking Bobby around the block.

I nay also be so presumptuous in saying Gene sees turns of himself in both Chase and Reis, but that would be even more speculative.
