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, Milton didn't invent Lucifer. I don't know exactly when Isaiah 
14:12 was first linked to Satan/the Devil but it goes back at least to 
St. Jerome. And the Gospels use Satan and the Devil interchangeably.
