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.

I kind of like the idea of Pas on the business end of a sacrifice. Also, 
there is the whole (quite intentional) Osiris motif in which Isis 
(Kypris) has to run around gathering parts of the god after he has been 
murdered. We have Patera Jaculus and we probably have Sand. I'd like 
more parts. There's Silk, but he's the phallus part that was missing 
that has to be added after his resurrection.
