Was Jonas a Chem?

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've given some thought on this thread, and even knowing I'm certainly not
the most versed person in GW's works (since I only read The Book of the New
Sun) - I insist on presenting my two cents of contribution:
The prefix "Jo" found in Jonas and Jolenta could be understood or read as
"IO". Well I-O suggests automation or programmed reflex action - (like the
one we find when we press a letter on the keyboard and it appears on the
screen).

Any thoughts?

Humbly,
Filipe Silva
