Suzanne Delage redux

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 recently gave it another polish and put it on my website:
http://www.gwern.net/Suzanne%20Delage.html

Hopefully this form is much more readable. I don't think I missed any
major theories about "Suzanne Delage" but perhaps someone has thought
of a new one in the last year or so?
