"been teaching literature for over 35 years"

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.

Not the blabberer, the blabberer's gatekeeper. That is, taking a
sufficiently persuasive rebuttal to the site editor that he asks the guy
to clean up his act. I'm sure you would agree that a writer is more likely
to heed their editor than a random reader?
