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.

At least one thing is certain: the White Fountain/New Sun will make Urth 
warmer. Earth occupies such a narrow temperature band of habitability 
that even slight changes will have a dramatic effect, and the New Sun is 
bound to make Urth even warmer than the black hole made it cooler. That 
alone tells us Ushas will be a jungle planet, though Green still has ice 
caps on its poles.
