Very OT: Tories

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.

Oh.  Darn- I saw a little about that (columnists inveighing against the 
Human Rights Act or some such) but it never
ocurred to me that that was what you were referring to...

And actually, when I was there the weather was lovely.  Now, Paris' just 
sucked- rain practically every day.
