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'm gonna say it for everybody...

Give it a rest, guys, you have made your points over and over and now it's time to move away from the discussions about the discussion.

Both Lee and Gerry are making excellent contributions aside from this sniping bullshit.
Just leave it alone already.
