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.

Well, I'm very impressed. I think we've done a great job in
coming up with a good spread of questions. We've got little nit-picky
technical inquiries, and broad thematic
questions as well. We don't sound too much like we're trying to do our
thesis research, but we  don't sound too much like trekkies,
either. A nice mix.
I can't wait to see the answers from these.

Gee, so what do we talk about until we hear the responses?
