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 just realized (this is probably not a satori to anyone but me) that two
of the major Wolfean Themes can be summed up in two pithy sentences, and
that they are intertwined (and, one might argue, they are central to
Christianity as well, although I don't think they're usually phrased this
way):

1) You become what you imitate.
2) You are what you eat.
