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'll have to go with the prosaic, allegorical interpretation on that one. Just the 
stereotypical idea that women spend their lives living and understanding being part of 
a dependent social network, while men spend their lives being independent and self-sufficient
and are thus less prepared for the dependency of old age. A comment on being human rather than
being Annese, I think.
