Wolfe vindicated!

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 think so. I guess the idea was that if particle polarity is reversed (antimatter 
electrons are positively charged) then all physical properties might be. There
is probably some mathematical basis for predicting it also.
