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.

By some qabalists, perhaps, I haven't run across it in thirty years of
doing qabalah, but I don't know everything, and there are lots of
different schools of qabalah. The word 'aleph' means 'an ox', as=20
others have pointed out here before. However, the letter is generally
associated with the element of Air. Taurus, in these systems, is
associated with the letter Vav and trump V, 'The Pope' or 'The=20
Hierophant'.
