Digest urth.v028.n138

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.

Why don't I take care of this? One of my best friends is a classicist, and =
can translate them in a jiffy. I'll e-mail her tomnorrow (too tired to look=
 up the phrases tonight) and we'll have them by Friday or so.
