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.

they also ride up in air currents in the third part, "in the foams and the
bubbles from the springs".  Isn't that a little bit suspicious and a bit
small right there?  It is also said - don't ask me how big a child is - at
one point.
