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 narrator acts Silky enough from the first moment, which suggests there 
is Silk in him, but showing no memory of the 20 years between LS and the 
sending of Horn into Silk's body. So where did that Silk come from? Horn's 
memories becoming personality once in Silk's body?
