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.

I just had a horrid thought: all this talk about arm
wounds, a lack of memory of how they got that way and
the carriage of a weapon reminds me of a murder in San
Diego years ago (I grew up there); is it possible that
Silk/Horn killed someone with that knife and the
wounds are the result of his victim fighting back?

could that explain the brevity and hostility he
experienced in the next encounter (where he gathered
the corn)? Had they heard something?

Out on a limb, i realize...
