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.

Well considering I mentioned my opinion about BotNS being a Pinnochio tale from his POV last week, I guess the coincidence would be that James and I were thinking along the same lines.

Regarding how I correspond with Gene, well he and I were neighbors for five years, so we have a loose back-and-forth. I try not to prod him with underhanded sneak questions too often, and he let's me have it when I do, so I get better responses when I tell him if the question isn't loaded or backhanded.
