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.

The massive experimentation confirms the earth is not a sphere, does not 
have uniform acceleration due to gravity, and this was first suspected 
by flawed people no later than the 19th century, assuming you are 
willing to agree to the flawed calendar and the flawed invention of the 
printing press that was used to publish the flawed papers they wrote 
about it.
