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.

The cliff face with strata of artifacts could easily be the result of an
earthquake, or it could have been a mountain that was extensively tunneled
and filled with artifacts the left to chiliads of neglect, like Mt Typhon.
Recognizeable constellations between Sev's and Apu's time put an upper
limit of about 100K years on their separation.
