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.

That's exactly how any number of people are judged world wide every day, 
and we have every reason to think such moral judgments have been going 
on for almost 100,000 years. If history ends in an era where the 
constellations are still recognizeable as those in the Incan era, that 
leaves Earthly mankind no younger than middle aged.
