Typhon's nature

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.

Folks,

Gerry Quinn is attacking ideas, not people.  As far as I can recall,
he has only ever attacked ideas, and never people.  I won't name
names--there should be no need--but I've repeatedly seen Mr. Quinn
personally attacked.

Please stop.  That is disgusting.  It also wastes time--or, if you
prefer, bandwidth--that could be spent on strengthening arguments.
