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 had a similar exeperience after reading "The Boy Who Hooked the Sun" 
and then suffering through a Hawaiin vacation slideshow, only to be 
presented with a mural of a boy netting the sun and hearing the eerily 
similar tale related.
