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.

When I saw the movie Conact (very minor spoiler here) and Jodie Foster met
the blind guy, and it took her a few moments to realize he was blind, and
no one ever came out and said "oh, he's blind," I thought "they stole that
from the first few chapters of Shadow of the Torturer."=20
