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.

Sure. But after weeks of weightlessness it might not be the overriding 
attribute of the place. It's something you have to work out, but you 
might not discuss it in your diary that you are writing after your body 
has been destroyed, you've taken over the body of someone in spaceship 
in orbit, and spent sometime on a third planet. Are there other wildlife 
on Green other than the Neighbors and Inhumi. I don't recall any mention 
of them.
