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.

Has the first time been discussed at length somewhere? Who/what power is 
supposed to have resurrected him? I'm not confortable with that episode 
either with him dying/resurrecting or just recovering from the fall, but the 
latter is a bit more economical.
