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 was watching a documentary on the Tango (the dance) last night, and it
was mentioned that the Tango originated in the Orilla, a slum in Buenos
Aires.

Orilla means shore or bank in Spanish, and I'd assume the BA Orilla is
next to the Rio de la Plata.

Possible link between Viron and Nessus (if one accepts that Nessus is
BA)?
