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.

IS a spy, (100% guarantee :)))

As far as church music goes, of course Bach was the master, but there are s=

cool contemporary ones like "I am the Bread of Life" which is directly crib=

from the gospel of John (and the refrain "I will raise you up on the last d=

strikes a nice eschatological "Terminus Est" kind of resonance)
