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.

It occured to me at lunch today that a problem with the open air 
atmosphere schemes, even ones that last thousands of years between 
refills, is that they take half to 3/4 the mass of earth's atmosphere to 
work. When this does escape from the moon, only small amount of that 
will also escape from the earth, and  the reset will eventually come to 
fall on the earth, raising its surface air pressure accordingly; this is 
a serious problem
