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.

	Yeah. That's the BONE of contention.
	Maybe the "men" of the planet were all dogmen. Any hint from the
descriptions of the robots and the self-named "trueman"?
	After all, the title is "TRACKING Song." Dogs track. Then again, so do men.
	I think this thesis has merit.
