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.

Cool ... One thing, though ... Robert, you refer to Doris as
"almost certainly" the daughter of Den Weer and Sherry Gold.
Perhaps I've missed (or simply forgotten) something in the=20
past coinscriptions on PEACE, but ... how does this, which=20
seems to-me-here-now highly conjectural, reach the point of
almost certainty?

The "D'Or" connection is not in and of itself sufficient for=20
such a strong claim, and may be weak: "Doris" comes from=20
Greek and means "gift," a point which would not escape Gene=20
"Onomastics B Me" Wolfe. (A gift from or to whom is another=20
question entirely.)

It is also, if I understand rightly, the name of a=20
daughter of Oceanus in Greek myth, which might actually=20
suggest another, mercantile, parentage...

Now as the river dissolves in the sea,
so Neptune has found another soul
