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.

No, shells are animal parts or products, and so "Shell" would=3D20
be a male bio's name>>>

Joe/Shell responds, smacking himself in the forehead with the palm of his
hand:

I guess you are right!  Animal by-products (Silk, Blood, Horn) are bio
names, how did that slip my mind?  I'm glad for the clarification,
especially as I don't want to be a chem=3D2E=3D2E=3D2E : ) =3D20
