Babbiehorn?: Was: a sincere question mostly for roy

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.

Doesn?t everyone?  
Silk/Horn (he seems to be mostly Silk at this point) remembers the incident.  He says he?s not ashamed of how he lived his ?lives? (note plural).  I suspect he?s having a moment of clarity about his identity confusion, though of course clarity about confusion can manifest as confusion, in contrast to the simplicity of denial.
I wonder whether Typhon counts as one of his lives...
